Heroic Sacrifice, Instant, designed by Lie Setiawan first released in Jun, 2026 in the set Marvel Super Heroes Commander. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.

Heroic Sacrifice would fit best in a white-based +1/+1 counters or “go tall” creature deck—something like Selesnya Counters, Abzan Midrange, or a Commander deck built around counter synergies (e.g., Reyhan, Shalai, or Hamza)—because it turns a large, counter-stacked creature into a temporary shield for your entire board and potentially converts its death into value by moving counters and drawing a card; it also has niche use in Aristocrats-style builds that want creatures to die profitably.
