(Again, Ray of Command was printed as 3U, but it's a 3-drop sorcery effect, effectively making all the cards besides Fog 3-drops, with a 2/2 instant/sorcery split.)Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10417959233780755818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-84599249945202830062011-03-17T18:11:41.740-04:002011-03-17T18:11:41.740-04:00For a different approach, Reverse Damage is the on...For a different approach, Reverse Damage is the only card that wasn't included in Mirage.

The rest, as originally printed, are common.<br /><br />Reverse Damage changed functionality when reprinted, to affect a future damage source instead of being retroactive. The rest maintained their functionality when reprinted.<br /><br />Reverse Damage could not be, or has not been, printed in another color in similar form. Ray of Command could be red (Threaten), Dark Banishing could be white (as 'non-white creature', a la Saltblast), Stone Rain has been green and black (Ice Storm, Sinkhole), and Fog has been white and even black (Holy Day, Darkness).<br /><br />Stone Rain has no "opposite" card that does the reverse of whatever it does - Reverse Damage has False Cure, Fog has Flaring Pain, Ray of Command has Donate, Dark Banishing has Zombify.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
