Mana Leak

Description

Mana Leak is a foundational blue instant spell that has remained a recognizable fixture in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game since its original printing. This release, issued under the Magic Online Promos series in 2013, carries the card number 31481 and features a foil treatment that distinguishes it from standard printings. The card retains its original mana cost of {1}{U} and functions by allowing the controller to counter a target spell unless its owner pays {3}, a mechanic that has defined blue counter strategies for decades. Designed by artist Christopher Rush, this foil version captures the essence of the card's utility within the game's broader ecosystem. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading card game cards often seek out promo variants like this one to complete thematic collections or to add distinct visual appeal to their holdings. The Magic Online Promos set represents a specific era of digital distribution and promotional events, making this card a tangible piece of that history. Whether you are building a deck around blue counters or simply appreciate the strategic depth of the game, this card offers a classic gameplay experience.
