About Sudden Setback

Sudden Setback, Instant, designed by Olivier Bernard first released in Feb, 2024 in the set Murders at Karlov Manor and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3.46.

A control deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent's strategy would benefit from including Sudden Setback in their deck. While Sudden Setback can be effective at temporarily delaying an opponent's key spell or permanent, there are better options available such as Counterspell or Unsubstantiate which offer more versatile and permanent solutions to dealing with threats. Sudden Setback could see situational play in specific metagames where its effect is particularly useful, but it may not be a staple card in most competitive decks.
