Thirst

Description

Released in 1996, the Mirage set remains a cornerstone for Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts, and Thirst (#99) is a notable entry within this era. This card is an Enchantment — Aura that targets a creature, imposing a strategic disadvantage on the opponent by preventing it from untapping during its controller's turn. The card’s design features the distinct artistic style of Roger Raupp, whose work helped define the visual identity of the Mirage expansion. Collectors often seek Thirst for its historical significance within the Blue mana color identity. As a Common rarity card, it serves as a fundamental piece for those building sets from the 1990s or exploring the early mechanics of Aura enchantments. The card requires a monthly upkeep payment of one blue mana to remain on the battlefield, adding a layer of resource management that defines early Magic gameplay. Whether you are completing a Mirage collection or studying the evolution of card design, this product represents a key moment in trading card history.
