Even in endless summer, dreams are battles of will

In Lorwyn, contests are everywhere — even a lullaby becomes a struggle for dominance.

Clash

Clash is a Keyword that can be applied to any type of card. Clash will have a requisite to trigger, and when it triggers, it reveals the top card of the deck of both players. If the card revealed by the controller of the Clash effect has a higher mana cost, it’s considered that they win the clash, and the effect linked to that Clash trigger resolves.

Your card is always shown on top, and the opponent's card on the bottom. This is the Clash animation when you win it:

Note that if the revealed cards have the same cost, you did not win and the Clash effect will not happen.

Will there be any "if you lose" effects that have a potential downside to using clash?
