# Douse Douse is a straightforward blue instant from Urza's Saga that counters target spell unless its controller pays one generic mana. This humble permission spell represents the kind of efficient, flexible interaction that defined blue's role during the late 1990s. Collectors appreciate Douse primarily as a set completion piece rather than a standout card. Its uncommon rarity and functional simplicity mean it never commanded significant attention in the secondary market. The card's main appeal lies in its connection to Urza's block, a beloved era for many Magic enthusiasts. Nonfoil copies remain affordable and readily available, making Douse accessible to players building period-appropriate decks or collectors pursuing complete sets.
