About Narrow Escape

Narrow Escape, Instant, designed by Karl Kopinski first released in May, 2020 in the set Zendikar and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.60.

Narrow Escape would be beneficial in a white control deck that focuses on gaining life and maintaining board presence. While it provides a temporary solution by returning a permanent to your hand, the 4 life gain can help stabilize against aggressive strategies. However, a more versatile option could be Teferi's Protection, which offers a similar effect but with the added benefit of protecting you from all types of harm for a turn. Narrow Escape could see play in specific metagames where life gain is crucial, but Teferi's Protection may be a stronger choice overall for its broader utility.
