# Frost Breath Frost Breath is a straightforward common from Magic 2012 that represents the core identity of blue's combat tricks. The card taps down creatures, a mechanic that has remained relevant across Magic's history. Collectors view it as a functional reprint of earlier freeze effects, making it historically interesting rather than unique. The card's simplicity means it rarely commands collector attention compared to rares or mythics. However, the foil version holds modest appeal for players building cube decks or those seeking complete foil commons from M12. Its availability in both nonfoil and foil keeps it accessible. For most collectors, Frost Breath serves as a utility piece rather than a centerpiece, valued primarily by those pursuing set completion or specific format needs.
