Scald

Description

Scald is an Uncommon Enchantment from the Urza's Saga expansion, released by Wizards of the Coast in 1998. As card number 211 in the set, this piece features artwork by Adam Rex and is recognized by the USG set code. The card possesses a mana value of 2 and requires {1}{R} to cast, placing it firmly within the Red color identity of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Its gameplay effect triggers whenever a player taps an Island for mana, dealing 1 damage to that player. This mechanic makes it a notable inclusion for collectors focused on the Urza's Saga era or those building decks centered around Island synergy. Collectors often seek out specific card numbers from this expansion to complete their Urza's Saga sets. The distinct rules text and Adam Rex illustration contribute to the card's appeal among Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts who value both the strategic depth and the artistic style of the late 1990s. Whether for completing a collection or studying the history of Red enchantments, Scald remains a significant component of the Urza's Saga release.
