Reverse Damage

Instant, 1WW (3)
The next time a source of your choice would deal damage to you this turn, prevent that damage. You gain life equal to the damage prevented this way.¹
"Weapons usually bring death. Today, mine will bring life."

Crystal Keep Rulings Summaries

• This can only affect damage which would be dealt after it resolves. [D'Angelo 1999/05/01]
• It only affects damage dealt by the source one time. If the source damages you a second time this turn, the damage will not be reversed. [D'Angelo 1999/05/01]
• It can be used even if you have taken no damage this turn, in order to waste the spell. [Duelist Magazine #6, Page 131]
