About Handcuffs

Handcuffs, Enchantment, designed by Jeff Laubenstein first released in Aug, 1998 in the set Unglued. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 5.26.

Handcuffs would fit well in a control or prison-style deck that aims to restrict opponents' actions and board presence, particularly in formats where players rely on creature-based strategies. This card can create a unique win condition by leveraging the chosen player's inability to keep their hands together, potentially disrupting their game plan. However, there are arguably more efficient control cards, such as Stasis or Winter Orb, which can achieve similar goals of locking down the board without relying on a physical condition. While Handcuffs has a fun and thematic appeal, its effectiveness and playability may be limited compared to more established control options.
