## Description

Printed as a Common with a Red mana cost of {2}{R}, this Instant card offers players a versatile tool for board control. The card's ability allows it to deal 3 damage to any target while also triggering Proliferate, a keyword action that lets players add additional counters to permanents or players already bearing them. This dual effect makes it a strategic choice for decks focused on token strategies or counter-heavy archetypes.

Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards often seek out the foil treatment found in this print. The shimmering finish adds visual appeal to the card, distinguishing it from the standard nonfoil versions within the set. Designed by Jana Schirmer and Johannes Voss, the card represents the artistic direction of the New Phyrexia block. For hobbyists completing their New Phyrexia collection, this foil copy is a notable addition. It stands as a functional piece of game history, valued for its gameplay utility and its place within the broader narrative of the Magic: The Gathering universe.
