Description
This Instant card, illustrated by Thomas Gianni, is designed to disrupt the standard flow of the game by forcing a direct mental confrontation between players. Unlike traditional removal or combat spells, Head to Head requires interaction, making it a favorite for casual and competitive playstyles that value player engagement over solitary strategy. The card’s mechanics revolve around a mini-game known as Seven Questions. When cast for one white mana, the caster challenges a target opponent to identify the top card of their library. The opponent reveals this card privately, allowing the caster to ask up to six yes-or-no questions to deduce its identity. The final question requires guessing the card's name. Success here offers a significant tactical advantage: if the caster correctly guesses the name, they can prevent all damage that would be dealt that turn by a source of their choice. This potential to nullify an entire turn of damage makes the card strategically potent, despite its unconventional execution. Collectors value The inventory for its dedication to preserving the integrity of these unique pieces. Head to Head represents the whimsical yet mechanically deep spirit of the Unhinged series, which was created specifically for casual play. Its status as an Uncommon rarity ensures it is accessible to builders looking to add flavor and utility to their decks. Whether you are completing a set of the Unhinged expansion or seeking a card that encourages table talk and interaction, this release offers a distinct experience. Head to Head exemplifies this by turning the hidden information of a library into a game of deduction. Collecting this card allows enthusiasts to own a piece of that experimental era. It serves as a reminder of the game's versatility and the creative freedom allowed in its unofficial expansions.

You and target opponent play Seven Questions with the top card of that player's library. If you win, prevent all damage that would be dealt this turn by a source of your choice. (To play Seven Questions, that player looks at the card, then you ask up to six yes-or-no questions about the card that they answer truthfully. You guess the card's name—that's question seven—then the player reveals the card.)
