About Ertai's Trickery

Ertai's Trickery, Instant, designed by Kev Walker first released in Feb, 2001 in the set Planeshift.

Ertai's Trickery is best suited for a control or tempo deck that focuses on countering spells and leveraging the advantage of kicked spells, making it particularly effective in formats where spells can be kicked for additional effects. While it offers a unique countering ability, there are arguably better options like Counterspell for its straightforward countering ability without conditions or Mana Drain for its additional mana advantage. However, if your deck includes synergies with kicked spells or if you're looking for a more thematic or fun approach, Ertai's Trickery can still find a place, especially in casual or multiplayer formats.

Rules

10/01/09

You can target any spell, but that spell will be countered only if it was kicked.
