Chilling Trap, Instant, designed by Johann Bodin first released in Sep, 2020 in the set Zendikar Rising and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's a key card in 1 combos.
A deck that focuses on tempo and control, particularly one with a Wizard subtheme, would benefit from including Chilling Trap in their strategy. The potential to draw a card if you control a Wizard adds card advantage, and the -4/-0 effect can help with removal or combat tricks. While Chilling Trap is a decent card, there are better options available such as Vapor Snag, which not only provides a similar effect but also returns the targeted creature to its owner's hand, potentially disrupting their plans further. Chilling Trap could see play in niche Wizard tribal decks or limited environments, but it may not be a top-tier choice for more competitive decks.

If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Chilling Trap tries to resolve, the spell doesn’t resolve. You don’t draw a card if you control a Wizard.
