Nemesis Trap, Instant — trap, designed by Ryan Pancoast first released in Feb, 2010 in the set Worldwake and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.
A deck that focuses on controlling the board and disrupting the opponent's creatures, especially white ones, would benefit from including Nemesis Trap. While it offers a unique way to deal with attacking threats and potentially create a copy of a powerful creature, other removal spells like Murderous Cut or Hero's Downfall might be more efficient in terms of mana cost and flexibility. However, in a specific meta where white creatures are prevalent, Nemesis Trap could see play as a situational and flavorful inclusion.

If the exiled creature has in its mana cost (such as Protean Hydra), X is considered to be zero.

If the exiled creature was copying something else (for example, if it was a Jwari Shapeshifter), then your token enters the battlefield as a copy of whatever the exiled creature was copying.

If the targeted creature is an illegal target by the time Nemesis Trap resolves, the entire spell doesn’t resolve. You won’t get a token.

If you cast Nemesis Trap during your opponent’s declare attackers step, you’ll put the token onto the battlefield before the declare blockers step begins and you can block with it this combat. If you cast Nemesis Trap later in the combat phase a, you won’t be able to block with the token.

If you cast Nemesis Trap for , you may still target any attacking creature, not just the white attacking creature.
