About Spell Snip

Spell Snip, Instant, designed by Michael Sutfin first released in May, 2020 in the set Shards of Alara.

This card, Snip, would be beneficial in a control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's game plan by countering key spells while also providing card advantage through cycling. While Snip is a decent option for budget decks or decks looking for additional flexibility, more competitive decks may opt for more efficient counterspells like Mana Leak or Remand, which offer additional utility or stronger effects. Ultimately, the decision to include Snip in a deck would depend on the specific strategy and metagame considerations, but it may not see widespread play in highly competitive environments.

Rules

10/01/08

Cycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle or Rings of Brighthearth) will interact with cycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.
