Deliberate

Description

Deliberate is a common Instant card from the Magic: The Gathering Zendikar Rising expansion, released in 2020. Identified as card number 56 in the Zendikar Rising (ZNR) set, this blue mana spell features a mana cost of {1}{U} and a mana value of 2. The card was illustrated by Slawomir Maniak, whose artwork brings the Zendikar Rising aesthetic to life for collectors and players alike. In gameplay, Deliberate offers a straightforward yet powerful effect. By paying its mana cost, players can scry two, allowing them to look at the top two cards of their library and arrange them as desired, followed by drawing one card. This combination of card filtering and card advantage makes it a staple in blue decks that value consistency and resource management. The flavor text, "I can't see all that the future holds, but I can keep us one step ahead of death," hints at the strategic foresight the card provides. Deliberate stands out as a functional piece of this collection, appealing to those who appreciate both the artistic and mechanical depth of the set. Whether you are building a competitive deck or simply adding to your Magic: The Gathering collection, Deliberate represents a key component of the Zendikar Rising experience.
