Mindbreak Trap

My Friend casted Emrakul with its Tron almost Declaring GG to his opponent...
I wish I can tell you how his face turned all wierd when his opponent casted this this on it...XD



My Friends opponent was Playing Dragonstorm BTW

It's such a strange wording. I've never fully got it really.

Basically, it exiles and counters everything on the stack, right? It's super-cool any way you look at it.

Yes it exiles the Spell from the Stack so it is Pseudo Countered...

Reason why this can Counter the Uncouterable Emrakul...XD

Trés slick. Getting round uncounterables is always insanely fun. And that's when it's not Emrakul.

Not to mention the flavour text. Dat flavour text.

At first I was confused.

Then I remembered that abilities (minus the uncounterable one) don't apply until after Emrakul resolves.

Nifty.

Trapmaker's Snare is the most idiotic card ever.

SEARCH FOR A TRAP AND REVEAL IT? SERIOUSLY.

Sorry, I just remember it from the Dimir Deckout thread on MTGS. It looked cool, but I haven't read the "reveal" oart xD

Well is like Being playing against Blue and not expecting a Counterspell being on someones hand...

Blue player might not have them ATM but the opponent will always be suspicious...

IT'S a TRAP afterall...XD

Traps are/were essentially a mind game ploy. By not causing the conditions, players could avoid getting hit by the cheaper costs of the Trap. But, it can/will hinder a lot of actions and result in slowing that person down.

And then there's the fact that Mindbreak is a pretty cheap trap to begin with, so even if your opponents avoid the cost...you can still have an effective counter tool.

...anyway, card is cool because it's a blue counterspell trap card.

Yay for killing combo decks!
