About Pitfall Trap

Pitfall Trap, Instant — trap, designed by Franz Vohwinkel first released in May, 2020 in the set Zendikar and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of NZ$ 0.62.

Pitfall Trap would be particularly beneficial in a white control or defensive deck that aims to manage the board by removing threats efficiently. Its ability to be cast for just {W} when only one creature is attacking makes it a cost-effective removal option, especially in formats where aggressive strategies are prevalent. However, there are stronger alternatives like Path to Exile or Swords to Plowshares, which can exile a creature regardless of its attacking status and often provide additional benefits. While Pitfall Trap can see play in specific scenarios, especially in limited formats or casual play, it may not be the optimal choice in competitive environments where more versatile removal spells are available.

Rules

10/01/09

Effects that increase or reduce the cost to cast a Trap will apply to whichever cost you chose to pay.

You may ignore a Trap’s alternative cost condition and simply cast it for its normal mana cost. This is true even if its alternative cost condition has been met.
