About Traitor's Clutch

Traitor's Clutch, Instant, designed by Dave Allsop first released in October 2006 in the set Time Spiral. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.49.

A deck that focuses on aggressive strategies or controlling the board would benefit from including Traitor's Clutch due to its ability to boost a creature's power, grant evasion with shadow, and provide flexibility with flashback. While Traitor's Clutch can be effective in certain situations, a more efficient card like Feeding Frenzy, which provides a similar effect at a cheaper cost and has additional benefits, may be a better choice for most decks. Traitor's Clutch could see play in more casual or budget decks, but it may struggle to find a place in more competitive or optimized lists.

Rules

03/19/2021

“Flashback [cost]” means “You may cast this card from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost” and “If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack.”

03/19/2021

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you’re paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The converted mana cost of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

03/19/2021

You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.
