About Brain Freeze

Brain Freeze, Instant, designed by Tim Hildebrandt first released in May, 2003 in the set Scourge and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 16.41. It's a key card in 3 combos.

Brain Freeze is particularly effective in a mill deck that aims to deplete an opponent's library quickly, especially when combined with spells that generate multiple casts in a single turn, such as those found in storm or combo strategies. While Brain Freeze can be powerful in the right context, cards like Glimpse the Unthinkable, which mills ten cards for two mana, may offer a more efficient option for dedicated mill decks. However, Brain Freeze's storm ability can create explosive turns, making it a valuable inclusion in certain builds, especially in formats where storm strategies are viable, so it should see play in those contexts.

Rules

A copy of a spell can be countered like any other spell, but it must be countered individually. Countering a spell with storm won’t affect the copies.

The copies are put directly onto the stack. They aren’t cast and won’t be counted by other spells with storm cast later in the turn.

06/07/13

You may choose new targets for any of the copies. You can choose differently for each copy.
