Bar the Gate⁣ - Adventures in the Forgotten Realms⁣ (Common)⁣ [47]

Bar the Gate is a two-mana instant from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms that counters a target creature or planeswalker spell while allowing you to venture into the dungeon. This dual functionality makes it a solid choice for control decks, as it not only disrupts your opponent's plans but also advances your own dungeon-crawling strategy. Keep in mind that it only counters spells, so it won't help against permanents on the battlefield. Available from Vault of Cards, a UK-based Magic: The Gathering store with fast delivery.
