Description
Curse of Bloodletting is a rare Enchantment — Aura Curse from the 2012 Magic: The Gathering Dark Ascension set, designated as card number 85 with the DKA set code. As a Red card with a mana cost of {3}{R}{R} and a mana value of 5, this foil card offers a potent strategic option for players seeking to impose heavy penalties on their opponents. The card is designed to enchant a specific player, fundamentally altering the damage calculation for any source targeting them. Instead of taking damage once, the enchanted player suffers double that amount, making it a formidable tool for aggressive or control-oriented decks looking to close out games quickly. The foil finish adds a layer of visual appeal and collectibility, distinguishing this version from standard prints. Designed by Michael C. Hayes, the card captures the essence of the curse theme prevalent in the set, reflecting the infernal influence of the demon Sorin Markov. For collectors, this card represents a key piece of the Dark Ascension catalog, appealing to those who appreciate rare enchantments and foil treatments in Magic: The Gathering. The combination of its unique gameplay effect, high mana value, and foil rarity makes it a standout item for any serious MTG enthusiast. Whether used in gameplay or added to a collection, the Curse of Bloodletting stands as a testament to the strategic depth and artistic quality of the Dark Ascension set.
