About Permafrost Trap

Permafrost Trap, Instant — trap, designed by Howard Lyon first released in Feb, 2010 in the set Worldwake. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.47.

Permafrost Trap would be beneficial in a control deck that aims to tap down or slow the opponent's creatures to gain tempo advantage. While it provides a conditional mana cost reduction, allowing for potential free casting, it may be situational based on the opponent's deck composition. There are other similar cards, like Sleep, that have a more consistent effect by tapping all creatures, but Permafrost Trap could find a place in specific metagames or sideboard options for decks that need targeted creature control.

Rules

03/01/10

If an affected creature changes controllers before its previous controller’s next untap step, this ability will prevent it from untapping during its new controller’s next untap step.

03/01/10

You may target any two (or fewer) creatures. It’s okay if any of them are already tapped. If you cast Permafrost Trap for , you don’t have to target the green creature that entered the battlefield under an opponent’s control.
