About Azorius Arrester

Azorius Arrester, Creature — human soldier, designed by Wayne Reynolds first released in Oct, 2012 in the set Return to Ravnica and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.02.

This Azorius Arrester card would be beneficial in a control deck that focuses on slowing down the opponent's creatures and maintaining board control. While it is a useful card for detaining a target creature, there are potentially better options such as Deputy of Detention, which detains any nonland permanent, or Reflector Mage, which returns a creature to its owner's hand. Whether Azorius Arrester should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, as well as the current metagame.

Rules

04/15/13

Activated abilities include a colon and are written in the form “[cost]: [effect].” No one can activate any activated abilities, including mana abilities, of a detained permanent.
