About Battle at the Bridge

Battle at the Bridge, Sorcery, designed by Chris Rallis first released in Jan, 2017 in the set Aether Revolt Promos and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.49.

A deck that heavily relies on artifacts and has a focus on controlling the board would benefit from using Battle at the Bridge. This card can be particularly useful in an artifact-heavy deck that can easily generate artifacts to help reduce the cost of casting it and gain life while dealing with threats on the board. While there may be other removal spells that are more efficient or versatile, Battle at the Bridge can still be a solid inclusion in decks that can take advantage of its mechanics effectively.
