About Retraction Helix

Retraction Helix, Instant, designed by Phill Simmer first released in Feb, 2014 in the set Born of the Gods and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of ₱ 21.47. It's a key card in 14 combos.

A deck focused on tempo and control strategies, such as a Blue-based tempo deck or a control deck, would benefit from using Retraction Helix. It provides a versatile and efficient way to disrupt your opponent's board state by bouncing problematic nonland permanents back to their hand. While there may be more powerful bounce spells like Unsummon or Cyclonic Rift available, Retraction Helix's ability to be reused multiple times in a turn can make it a valuable inclusion in certain decks, especially those looking to maintain board control and disrupt the opponent's game plan.
