Cyclonic Rift (Ravnica Remastered) Near Mint

Rift the Board

Cyclonic Rift is a clean answer on a one drop plus blue that trades tempo for position. Cast Cyclonic Rift for {1}{U} to bounce a single nonland permanent you do not control and buy back a turn of breathing room. In multiplayer games the card shines as a targeted tempo swing that can reset a key threat or remove a troublesome utility piece while leaving your own board intact.

When you pay the overload cost the card becomes a board reset that leaves your permanents where they are and returns everything else to hand. That conversion from precise removal to mass bounce is why Cyclonic Rift is a staple for control builds that can leverage high converted mana cost spells. The flavor lands it firmly with the Izzet, a guild that engineers spectacular disorder and then draws advantage from the fallout.
