About Candletrap
Candletrap, Enchantment — aura, designed by Manuel Castañón first released in September 2021 in the set Innistrad: Midnight Hunt and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.49.
Candletrap would fit well in a defensive or control-oriented deck that aims to stall the game while building up a board presence, particularly in formats where creature-based strategies are prevalent. It synergizes nicely with decks that utilize a variety of creatures with different powers, enabling the coven ability to exile threats. While there are other enchantments like **Journey to Nowhere** or **Oblivion Ring** that can also remove creatures but without the specific coven requirement, they may be more versatile. However, Candletrap's ability to prevent combat damage and grant defender can be particularly useful in decks focused on protecting life totals or creating a stalling strategy. Overall, it has niche applications and could see play in the right context, especially in a metagame heavy with aggressive creature strategies.
Rules
09/24/2021
A creature has different power from another if their powers are different numbers. For example, a 1/1 creature and a 2/1 creature have different powers.
09/24/2021
For three creatures to have different powers from one another, each of their powers needs to be different. A 1/1 creature, a 2/1 creature, and another 2/1 creature aren't three creatures with different powers, even though both 2/1 creatures have different power than the 1/1 creature.
09/24/2021
Many coven abilities, such as that of Dawnhart Wardens above, are triggered abilities with intervening if clauses. You must control three or more creatures with different powers at the time the ability triggers and at the time the ability tries to resolve. They do not, however, need to be the same set of creatures in both cases.
