About Trickbind
Trickbind, Instant, designed by John Zeleznik first released in Oct, 2006 in the set Time Spiral and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.
A control deck that focuses on disrupting opponents' key activated or triggered abilities would benefit from including Trickbind in its strategy, as it provides a unique way to counter such abilities with the added benefit of preventing further activations for the turn. While there may be more versatile or efficient options available in certain situations, Trickbind's ability to shut down specific abilities can be particularly useful in certain matchups, making it a viable choice for decks looking to disrupt combo or synergy-based strategies.
Rules
03/19/21
If the resolution of a triggered ability involves casting a spell, that spell can’t be cast if a spell with split second is on the stack.
03/19/21
Players still get priority while a card with split second is on the stack; their options are just limited to mana abilities and certain special actions.
03/19/21
Split second doesn’t stop triggered abilities from triggering, such as that of Chalice of the Void. If one does, its controller puts it on the stack and chooses targets for it, if any. Those abilities will resolve as normal.
06/07/13
Split second doesn’t prevent players from activating mana abilities.
06/07/13
Split second doesn’t prevent players from performing special actions. Notably, players may turn face-down creatures face up while a spell with split second is on the stack.
09/25/06
If Trickbind counters an activated ability of a permanent, no activated abilities of that permanent can be activated for the remainder of the turn. This includes activated abilities other than the one that was countered, as well as any mana abilities that permanent may have. Other abilities of that permanent, including triggered abilities and static abilities, are unaffected.
09/25/06
Trickbind can be used to counter the echo triggered ability. If so, the echo ability won’t trigger again so the echo cost is never paid.
09/25/06
Trickbind can be used to counter the madness triggered ability. The affected card will remain exiled.
09/25/06
Trickbind can’t counter or prevent paying the morph cost to turn a face-down creature face up, since that action doesn’t use the stack.
