Wing Snare destroys a flying creature for three mana at sorcery speed — full stop. Cheaper options like Beast Within and Beast Within exist at instant speed, so Wing Snare is a distant choice in any format that isn't desperately budget-constrained.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
In Commander, Wing Snare competes against a crowded field of green removal that does more for less, and sorcery speed against a flying threat is a liability when opponents can respond before your turn. Across Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer, the formats are too fast and interactive for a three-mana sorcery that only hits one creature type to see any meaningful play. Wing Snare is legal in Oathbreaker and Vintage as well, but neither format changes the calculus — the card is simply outclassed in every environment where it's allowed.

Price Context
Current price
$0.16 bulk tier
At $0.16, Wing Snare sits firmly in bulk territory and is unlikely to move in either direction. The price reflects the card's playability ceiling — grab it if you're filling a slot on a shoestring budget, but don't expect demand to ever pressure that number upward.
