About Bane's Contingency

Bane's Contingency, Instant, designed by Hector Ortiz first released in May, 2022 in the set Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate.

A control deck focused on protecting a commander would benefit from using Bane's Contingency in a Commander format of Magic: the Gathering. While Bane's Contingency offers a unique advantage by allowing you to scry 2 and draw a card if the countered spell targets your commander, it faces competition from more versatile counterspells like Counterspell or Swan Song, which offer broader protection and utility. Whether Bane's Contingency sees play would depend on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck, but it could be a situational inclusion for decks looking to protect their commander effectively.
