Description
Detention Vortex, identified as card number 13 in the Strixhaven: School of Mages expansion, is a distinctive white enchantment from Magic: The Gathering released in 2021. Designed by Campbell White, this Uncommon card belongs to the Aura subtype and requires just a single white mana to cast. Its primary effect targets nonland permanents, preventing the enchanted permanent from attacking or blocking while simultaneously disabling all of its activated abilities. This versatile control mechanism makes it a valuable inclusion for players seeking early-game disruption in limited formats. While this card is a common print, it represents a functional piece of the game's history. Enthusiasts building collections of Strixhaven cards or focusing on white mana strategies will find this product relevant to their interests. The card's straightforward rules text and low mana cost define its role within the broader Strixhaven: School of Mages release.
