About Gideon's Sacrifice
Gideon's Sacrifice, Instant, designed by Chris Rallis first released in Apr, 2019 in the set War of the Spark and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's a key card in 3 combos.
A deck that focuses on protecting key creatures or planeswalkers would benefit from including Gideon's Sacrifice, as it provides a powerful defensive option to redirect damage away from important permanents. While Gideon's Sacrifice can be a useful tool in certain situations, there are potentially better options available such as cards like Teferi's Protection or Heroic Intervention that offer more versatile protection. However, Gideon's Sacrifice could still see play in specific strategies that require targeted damage redirection.
