About Forbidding Spirit

Forbidding Spirit, Creature — spirit cleric, designed by Ryan Yee first released in Jan, 2019 in the set Ravnica Allegiance and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.54.

A deck that focuses on controlling the board and stalling the game would benefit from including Forbidding Spirit, as it provides valuable protection by deterring opponents from attacking. While there may be other cards with similar effects, such as Ghostly Prison or Sphere of Safety, Forbidding Spirit's ability to restrict attacks until your next turn can be particularly effective in certain strategies. Its playability would depend on the specific deck archetype and the current metagame, but it could certainly find a place in decks looking to control the battlefield and buy time to establish a winning position.

Rules
