Momentary Blink

Momentary Blink was originally released in the 2006 Time Spiral expansion, designed as a clever utility spell that leverages the 'flicker' mechanic to protect creatures or re-trigger enters-the-battlefield abilities. The card became a cornerstone of competitive gameplay during its initial run, particularly within control archetypes that utilized its flashback cost to gain repeated incremental advantages. Its design reflects the set's broader theme of celebrating Magic: The Gathering’s history through refined mechanics and nostalgic callbacks.

The version from Dominaria Remastered, released in 2023, serves as a modernized reprint featuring updated card frame styling while retaining the original functionality. The illustration for the Dominaria Remastered print was handled by Magali Villeneuve, who provided a fresh aesthetic interpretation of the spell's ethereal nature. The set itself was curated to collect iconic cards from across the franchise's history into a single cohesive draft environment, and this inclusion was chosen to provide players with a reliable, versatile tool for both limited and constructed formats.
