Ensnare Price

Updated 2026-09-08

Ensnare from Nemesis is a blue instant that taps all creatures an opponent controls, functioning as a fog variant that prevents incoming damage while also locking down blockers for an offensive swing. The card has a single printing from Nemesis with no significant reprints, and it occupies a specific niche in older Legacy and Commander builds that want additional fog-type effects with a more aggressive application than standard options. Nemesis was a smaller Masques-block set with a moderate print run, making near-mint copies of its rares and uncommons increasingly scarce at nearly three decades of age. Price has been flat over both the weekly and monthly windows, consistent with a low-demand collectible that holds value through scarcity rather than active format demand. Commander players building blue control strategies who want combat manipulation beyond standard counterspells represent most of the audience. The single-printing history is the primary long-term value anchor.
