About Respite

Respite, Instant, designed by Rebecca Guay first released in Oct, 1997 in the set Tempest and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Pauper. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.15.

A deck that focuses on gaining life and stalling the game would benefit from including Respite in its strategy, as it provides a way to prevent combat damage and gain life simultaneously. However, there are potentially better options like Fog or Moment's Peace that offer similar effects at the same cost or lower, making them more versatile and impactful in certain situations. Whether Respite should see play ultimately depends on the specific strategy and meta of the deck it's being considered for.
