Description
Released in 2001 as part of the Planeshift expansion, Pollen Remedy stands out as a versatile white instant within the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Identified by card number 13 and the set code PLS, this card offers collectors a tangible connection to an era defined by complex mechanics and strategic depth. The foil treatment adds a layer of visual appeal, catching the light with a shimmering finish that distinguishes it from the standard non-foil prints. In gameplay, Pollen Remedy provides essential defensive utility. For a single white mana, it prevents the next three damage points from being dealt to any number of targets. Its true versatility comes from its kicker ability, which allows players to sacrifice a land in addition to the mana cost. This additional cost doubles the damage prevention to six, making it a powerful tool for surviving aggressive turns. For collectors building a Planeshift collection, this foil version represents a key component. Whether you are assembling a complete set, hunting for specific card numbers, or simply admiring the artwork and mechanics of the time, Pollen Remedy holds a distinct place in the TCG landscape. The combination of its functional design and foil finish makes it a noteworthy addition to any Magic: The Gathering archive.
