What it does
Target artifact, creature, or land phases out. (While it's phased out, it's treated as though it doesn't exist. It phases in before its controller untaps during their next untap step.)

Where it came from
Reality Ripple was released in October 1996 as part of the Mirage expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. It represents the set's introduction of phasing, a complex game mechanic designed to simulate objects shifting in and out of existence. Within the lore of the set, the card reflects the mystical, desert-inspired environment of Jamuraa, a continent characterized by its focus on elemental magic and ancient, hidden ruins.
The artwork was provided by Alan Rabinowitz, who contributed several pieces to the Mirage set. His illustration emphasizes the ethereal and transient nature of the spell, utilizing a muted, dreamlike palette to visualize the act of temporarily removing a target from the battlefield. Upon its release, the card was noted for its unique utility in providing defensive protection, though its mechanical complexity led to it being primarily regarded as a niche tool for experienced players rather than a mainstay of competitive play.
