Flare of Fortitude: Retro Frame Foil
Flare of Fortitude, from the Modern Horizons 3 set, arrives as a compact instant that reframes how you defend on a crucial turn. You may sacrifice a nontoken white creature rather than pay this spell's mana cost. Until end of turn, your life total can't change, and permanents you control gain hexproof and indestructible. The Retro Frame with a light-play foil finish catches the light and highlights the spell's protective aura.
In practice, it buys you a window to stabilize, swing with purpose, or weather a heavy removal turn. The strategic cost—sacrificing a white creature—fits well with token and white resilience strategies, rewarding precise timing and careful planning. Flavor text reads, "I call upon a power greater than myself."
