Abrade: Clean Removal or Direct Burn
Abrade from the Foundations set is a compact, efficient answer that fits easily into aggro and midrange red decks. Castable for {1}{R}, it offers a choice between dealing three damage to a creature or destroying an artifact, letting you pivot based on the board state. The printed text is straightforward and familiar to seasoned pilots, making Abrade a reliable inclusion when you need flexible interaction on the stack.
The card reads well in both limited and constructed play. Use the damage mode to finish off small blockers or to push through incremental life, or take the artifact route to dismantle key equipment or mana rocks. The art evokes a harsh desert that consumes both flesh and stone, a fitting visual for a spell that can end creatures or reduce artifacts to ruin. Add Abrade to your sideboard or main deck for predictable utility. Pick up this Near Mint English copy if you want a clean, playable uncommon that solves problems without overcomplication.
