Static Prison
Static Prison, a Near Mint Foil enchantment from Modern Horizons 3, offers a precise tempo play for control decks. It costs {W} to cast and immediately asserts presence on the battlefield. When Static Prison enters the battlefield, exile target nonland permanent an opponent controls until Static Prison leaves the battlefield, and you gain 2 energy counters. At the start of your precombat main phase, you must sacrifice Static Prison unless you pay {W}{W}.
Beyond the tempo, this foil enchantment carries a quiet lore of containment and restraint, a field that holds a foe in stasis until you release it. The foil finish catches light as the energy chains shimmer, emphasizing the moment you bend the battlefield to your will. Used with care, Static Prison provides steady control by trading a single threat for a turn or two while you build your position.
