Soothing Balm⁣ - Mercadian Masques⁣ (Common)⁣ [48]

Soothing Balm allows you to target a player and gain 5 life for just two mana, making it an efficient way to stabilise your position in a game. It's particularly relevant in decks that focus on life gain or need a quick boost to survive aggressive strategies. However, its lack of additional effects means it's primarily a lifegain tool rather than a versatile instant.
