Invert Polarity: Flip the Script
Invert Polarity adds a compact disruption at instant speed. For {U}{U}{R} you target a spell on the stack and flip a coin. If you win the flip, you gain control of that spell and you may choose new targets for it. If you lose the flip, counter that spell. The exchange creates a pivot in the stack, allowing you to steal a key spell or shut it down with precision. The artwork shows electric energy crackling around a determined caster, a clear nod to the set's appetite for unpredictable outcomes.
Practically this card fits control and tempo builds that rely on timely interaction. The coin flip adds a risk that can pay off when you need to bend the stack without over committing mana. It rewards careful timing and a read on your opponent's plan, especially when a single spell stands as the turning point. The set's spirit comes through in the art and the idea of flipping fate, a motif that runs through Modern Horizons 3.
