About Subtlety
Subtlety, Creature — elemental incarnation, designed by Anastasia Ovchinnikova first released in May 2021 in the set Modern Horizons 2 and was printed exactly in 8 different ways. It see play in 3 formats: Modern, Vintage and Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 73.05.
This card, Subtlety, would be beneficial in a control deck in Magic: the Gathering, particularly in a deck focused on tempo and disruption. Its ability to counter a creature or planeswalker spell upon entering the battlefield with flash can disrupt an opponent's strategy, while also providing a flying threat. However, there are potentially better options for similar effects, such as Cryptic Command, which offers more versatility and control options. Whether Subtlety sees play would depend on the specific deck strategy and meta-game considerations.

Rules
06/18/2021
A spell that's put into its owner's library doesn't resolve, but it isn't countered. This will work on spells that say they can't be countered.
06/18/2021
If you pay the evoke cost, you can have the creature's own triggered ability resolve before the evoke triggered ability. You can cast spells after that ability resolves but before you have to sacrifice the creature.
06/18/2021
Subtlety's triggered ability targets a spell on the stack. It can't target creatures or planeswalkers on the battlefield.
06/18/2021
The owner of the spell is the one who chooses whether it goes on the top or bottom of their library. All players will know this information.
06/18/2021
To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an evoke cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined by only its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast that spell was.
