About Elkin Lair

Elkin Lair, World enchantment, designed by Jerry Tiritilli first released in Feb, 1997 in the set Visions. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 13.60.

A deck that focuses on controlling the opponent's resources and disrupting their game plan would benefit from using Elkin Lair in Magic: the Gathering. By forcing each player to exile a card at random from their hand each turn, it can disrupt the opponent's strategy and potentially limit their options. However, there are other cards like Liliana of the Veil or Thoughtseize that offer more targeted hand disruption and are generally considered more powerful in competitive play, making Elkin Lair less likely to see play in top-tier decks.
