About Opposition Agent

Opposition Agent, Creature — human rogue, designed by Scott Murphy first released in Oct, 2020 in the set Commander Legends and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It see play in 3 formats: Commander, Brawl and Casual. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 343.14. It's a key card in 3 combos.

Opposition Agent is a powerful card that would benefit decks focused on disrupting opponent's strategies, particularly in formats where tutoring effects are prevalent. While it's a strong choice for decks aiming to control the opponent's resources, there are other cards like Aven Mindcensor or Stranglehold that offer similar effects with less restrictive mana costs and potentially more versatility, making them better options in certain situations. Opposition Agent could see play in specific metagames where its abilities shine, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the context of the game.

Rules

11/10/20

If more than one player controls an Opposition Agent, and another player searches their library, the controller of the Opposition Agent that most recently entered the battlefield controls that player during the search. Because the last ability of each Opposition Agent is trying to exile the card and give permission to play it, the owner of the exiled card chooses which effect wins. However, that owner will be under another player’s control, so that player controlling that owner actually makes the decision. In other words, the player who controls the Opposition Agent whose effect applies (and thus controls the opponent) can choose to give themselves all the play permissions unless they’re feeling very generous.

11/10/20

If the search instruction states a quality of the card to find, such as a color or card type, you may have the opponent not find any cards. If the search is simply for a number of cards without stating a quality, you must have them find that many cards (or as many as possible, if their library doesn’t contain that many cards).

11/10/20

The cards found in the search will be exiled rather than be put wherever the spell or ability tells the opponent to put them after finding them. Any other effects the spell or ability has will still apply. If such an effect refers to the found cards, it can see them in exile.

11/10/20

While controlling an opponent, you make all choices and decisions for that player. However, because the control effect is limited to while they’re searching their libraries, it’s unlikely the player will be allowed to make any decisions other than what to find with the search.

11/10/20

You’ll still pay all costs for a spell cast this way, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs if any are available.
