Frost Fair Lure Fish card art
Frost Fair Lure Fish blankets the board with a repeatable tap effect that snowballs fast, and pairing it with Eldrazi Displacer to blink it on each opponent's turn turns that tap into a full lock. The cost is real — five mana is a commitment — but the payoff is board control that compounds every turn cycle.

Commander is where Frost Fair Lure Fish lives. Multiple opponents mean multiple boards to tap down, and a single flicker or untap effect converts it from a tempo piece into a win condition. Legacy and Vintage are legal homes on paper, but the five-mana ask in formats defined by speed and efficiency means Frost Fair Lure Fish sees essentially no play there. Oathbreaker is a reasonable supplementary slot if your planeswalker plan wants to stall combat.
