About Runeflare Trap

Runeflare Trap, Instant — trap, designed by Franz Vohwinkel first released in Oct, 2009 in the set Zendikar. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of NZ$ 0.19. It's a key card in 1 combos.

A control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's hand size and draw power would benefit from including Runeflare Trap, as it punishes players who draw too many cards in a turn. However, depending on the overall strategy of the deck, there may be better options available such as Sphinx's Revelation or Mind Twist, which can provide more consistent card advantage or disruption respectively. Runeflare Trap can be situational, but in the right meta or sideboard scenario, it could definitely see play for its unique effect.
