About Temper
Temper, Instant, designed by Matthew D. Wilson first released in Mar, 1998 in the set Stronghold. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of ₱ 21.66.
A deck that focuses on aggressive creature strategies, such as White Weenie or Boros Aggro, would benefit from including Temper in their deck. It provides a way to protect key creatures from damage while also potentially buffing them with +1/+1 counters, making them more resilient and threatening. While there may be better options depending on the specific deck and strategy, Temper could see play as a situational and versatile card that can swing combat situations in your favor.
