About Plea for Power

Plea for Power, Sorcery, designed by John Severin Brassell first released in Jun, 2014 in the set Conspiracy and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.12.

A control or combo deck focused on drawing cards and taking extra turns would benefit most from using Plea for Power in Magic: the Gathering. However, there are better cards with similar effects, such as Time Warp or Time Stretch, which provide more powerful, guaranteed effects without the randomness of a group vote. Ultimately, Plea for Power may not see much play in competitive decks due to its reliance on player voting and the presence of more efficient alternatives.

Rules

05/29/14

Because the votes are cast in turn order, each player will know the votes of players who voted beforehand.

05/29/14

No player votes until the spell or ability resolves. Any responses to that spell or ability must be made without knowing the outcome of the vote.

05/29/14

The phrase “the vote is tied” refers only to when there is more than one choice that received the most votes. For example, if a 5-player vote from among three different choices ends 3 votes to 1 vote to 1 vote, the vote isn’t tied.
