# Illusory Gains Illusory Gains represents a niche corner of Magic's design space: a blue enchantment that temporarily steals creatures while offering card advantage. Collectors appreciate it primarily as a Dragons of Tarkir rare with solid foil availability, making it accessible to set completionists. The card occupies an interesting middle ground—too narrow for constructed formats, yet flavorful enough to appeal to casual players building blue control or theft-themed decks. Its appeal lies more in set collecting than secondary market demand. Both foil and nonfoil versions remain reasonably available, so neither variant commands particular premiums. For Dragons of Tarkir collectors, it's a straightforward rare to acquire without hunting for special printings or chase variants.
