About Illumination
Illumination, Instant, designed by David O'Connor first released in Oct, 1996 in the set Mirage. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 1.40.
Illumination would be beneficial in a white control deck that focuses on disrupting opponents' artifact or enchantment spells while gaining life. However, cards like Disenchant or Revoke Existence may be better options as they provide more versatility in dealing with various types of permanents. Illumination could see play in specific metas where artifact and enchantment spells are prevalent, but it may not be a staple in most decks due to its limited scope of interaction.
