What it does
Counter target spell. Choose 1, 2, or 3 at random.

They may cast that card without paying its mana cost. Then they put the exiled cards on the bottom of their library in a random order.

Where it came from
Tibalt's Trickery was released in the 2021 Magic: The Gathering expansion set Kaldheim. As a red counterspell, it represented a mechanical experiment for the color, which typically lacks the ability to directly counter spells. The card was designed to embody the chaotic nature of the character Tibalt, functioning as a high-risk, high-reward ability that replaces an opponent's spell with a random effect from the top of their library.
The artwork was illustrated by Heonhwa Choe, who focused on the character's signature mischievous and volatile aesthetic. Upon release, the card quickly became a focal point of competitive discourse within the Magic community due to its interaction with low-cost spells and cascade mechanics. It gained significant notoriety for enabling fast, unpredictable combos in multiple formats, leading to its eventual restriction or banning in specific play environments.
