Item Condition

Magic: The Gathering single: Archive Trap, from Zendikar. Our grade: Lightly Played or better. Pictured: this printing of the card. Every card ships triple-sleeved — a soft sleeve, a deck sleeve and a rigid top loader.

Item Description

Archive Trap turns your opponent's own deck searching into a weapon. It normally costs five mana to make target opponent mill thirteen cards, but if an opponent searched their library this turn, you can pay zero instead. Fetch lands, tutors, Evolving Wilds and land-ramp spells all count, so against plenty of decks it ends up free.

Thirteen cards is a huge bite out of any library, which makes it a headline spell for blue mill decks, and the free casting lets you fire it off alongside the rest of your turn without losing tempo. In Commander, where nearly every deck searches for lands or combo pieces, the trap is armed in most games, and at instant speed you can wait for the search to resolve and spring it right away.

This is the Zendikar printing, collector number 41, illustrated by Jason Felix, in non-foil. Zendikar introduced Traps, instants with alternate costs triggered by an opponent's actions, and it is fitting that the same set brought a new cycle of fetch lands, among the easiest ways to set this one off.
