Every culture has its unlucky numbers. In a city where you're either alone, in a crowd, or being stabbed in the back, two is the worst number of all.

Provenance

Where it came from

Spell Snare was originally introduced in the 2006 Magic: The Gathering set Dissension as an uncommon instant. Designed as a tool for blue-aligned control decks, its utility stems from its efficiency in countering two-mana spells, which often serve as the backbone for aggressive strategies in formats like Modern and Legacy. The card’s design reflects the Ravnica block's focus on guild-specific mechanics and color-pairing depth.

The version from The List is a curated reprint that allows players to find older, foundational cards within modern booster packs. By including it in The List, Wizards of the Coast maintains the accessibility of essential tactical cards, ensuring that players have consistent access to reliable interaction for competitive deck construction. The artwork remains true to the original, emphasizing the calculated, trap-like nature of the spell.
