Item Description

Roiling Vortex makes free spells very expensive. This two-mana red enchantment deals 1 damage to each player at the beginning of their upkeep, and whenever a player casts a spell without spending mana on it, Vortex deals 5 damage to that player. Pay one red mana, and your opponents can't gain life for the rest of the turn.

In practice, it is a hate card and a burn engine in one. Cascade triggers, pitch spells and other free casts become painful, while the steady upkeep damage adds up for aggressive red decks that are winning the race anyway. The life-gain shutoff answers lifelink and lifegain decks at the moment it matters, like right before your burn spell resolves. In Commander, the upkeep ping pressures the whole table, which keeps long games from stalling.

Choose the Zendikar Rising printing, collector number 156, or the Zendikar Rising extended-art printing, collector number 352, which extends Campbell White's art past the standard frame; both are illustrated by Campbell White and offered here in non-foil.
