About Duress

Duress, Sorcery, designed by Lawrence Snelly first released in Nov, 2019 in the set Media Inserts and was printed exactly in 42 different ways. It see play in 8 formats: Pioneer, Standard, Pauper, Legacy, Vintage, Commander, Modern and Premodern. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.04.

A deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent's strategy and hand advantage would benefit from including Duress. While Duress is a solid choice for targeted discard, more competitive decks might opt for Thoughtseize, which allows you to choose any card at the cost of 2 life, or Inquisition of Kozilek, which can target any nonland card without restrictions. Duress can still see play in decks that require a lower mana cost option for hand disruption.
