Portcullis, Artifact, designed by Kev Walker first released in Mar, 1998 in the set Stronghold. It's a key card in 1 combos.
This card, Portcullis, could be beneficial in a control deck that aims to limit the number of creatures on the battlefield. It can be particularly effective against token strategies or decks that rely on swarming the board with creatures. However, there are more efficient options available, such as board wipes like Wrath of God or Supreme Verdict, which can clear the entire board at once. While Portcullis may have situational uses, it may not be a top choice for competitive play due to its high cost and limited impact compared to other options.

The “when Portcullis leaves the battlefield” ability is set up as part of the ability that exiles the creature. It will trigger when Portcullis leaves the battlefield even if Portcullis has somehow lost its abilities at that time.

Creatures which are phasing in will not trigger this card’s ability.

You check the count of the number of creatures on the battlefield again during resolution. The creature will not be exiled if the count is 2 or less.
