Flare of Duplication is a compact red instant that slots neatly into fast red builds and midrange plays. This Near Mint Foil copy from Modern Horizons 3 costs {1}{R}{R} and lets you sacrifice a nontoken red creature rather than pay this spell's mana cost. Then copy target instant or sorcery spell, and you may choose new targets for the copy. The result is practical value that can swing tempo by duplicating a key spell when timing matters.
In practice Flare of Duplication rewards precise sequencing. Use it to replicate removal or a crucial burn, turning a single play into two impactful attempts. The retro frame adds collectible flair while preserving the card's straightforward functionality, a reminder of MH3's approach to reanimating classic dynamics with a modern twist.
