About Assert Authority

Assert Authority, Instant, designed by Greg Hildebrandt first released in Oct, 2003 in the set Mirrodin. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.78.

Assert Authority would be a valuable addition to artifact-heavy control decks in Magic: the Gathering, as it offers a powerful spell counter ability at a potentially reduced cost due to its affinity for artifacts. While it may not be the most efficient counterspell available, its potential cost reduction and the additional benefit of exiling the countered spell make it a strong contender for inclusion in decks that can take advantage of its unique abilities. However, more versatile and widely-used counterspells like Counterspell or Mana Drain may still be preferred in most competitive decks due to their lower mana cost and broader applications.
