Set the Trap
Lie in Wait is a compact tactical sorcery that rewards careful graveyard planning and precise target selection. Cast this Near Mint Foil copy to return a creature card from your graveyard to your hand, then immediately apply the returned card's power as direct damage to a chosen creature. In extended play this card functions as both recursion and removal, letting you reclaim a threat and punish an opposing blocker in one sequence.
The Tarkir texture shows Gurmug Swamp menace and the foil sheen emphasizes the card art in play. Use Lie in Wait in grindy black blue decks where tempo and incremental advantage decide matches. Experienced players will sequence it to maximize value when the returned creature has high power or when the opponent leaves a critical blocker exposed. Add this foil Near Mint edition to your collection or deck and tighten your midrange lines today.
