About Tidal Bore

Tidal Bore, Instant, designed by Frank Kelly Freas first released in Oct, 1999 in the set Mercadian Masques. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 0.40.

This card would be beneficial in a control deck that focuses on tempo and board manipulation, as it provides flexibility in mana cost and the ability to tap or untap a creature for strategic advantage. While Tidal Bore offers versatility, there are arguably better options like Unsummon or Vapor Snag that provide similar effects at a lower cost and without the need for returning an Island. Ultimately, Tidal Bore may not see much play in competitive Magic: the Gathering decks due to the availability of more efficient alternatives.
