About Shadowbane

Shadowbane, Instant, designed by Douglas Shuler first released in Oct, 1996 in the set Mirage. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of € 0.31.

Shadowbane could be beneficial in a white control deck that aims to prevent damage and gain life, especially against black-heavy decks. However, there are potentially better options like Healing Salve or Lone Missionary that provide similar effects or additional benefits. Shadowbane may not be a top-tier card but could still see play in certain niche strategies where its specific protection is valuable.

Rules

08/01/08

This only prevents damage the chosen source would deal to you or a creature you control. If the creature would deal damage to another player, a planeswalker, or a creature you don’t control, it does not get prevented.
