"Luminous Offering" was a zero-cost Light spell card that grants the player two Light mana every time it's put into play, with virtually no setbacks. Basically, it's like MtG's "Black Lotus", but only granting 2 mana of a specific color (Light) at a time.

On paper, the card being restricted to giving 2 Light mana would mean that Luminous Offering would be endemic to Realm of Light decks. In practice, it single-handedly turned Realm of Light into the go-to realm for winning decks. Before Kessenju was discontinued in North America, almost every winning deck in major tournaments were hybrid-Light decks, with almost each and every one of them having at least one Luminous Offering.
