The Pandorica
Oracle Text
You may choose not to untap The Pandorica during your untap step.
{1}{W}, {T}: Untap another target nonland permanent, then it phases out. It can't phase in for as long as The Pandorica remains tapped. When The Pandorica becomes untapped or leaves the battlefield, that permanent phases in. Activate only as a sorcery.
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
The Pandorica is a cleanly designed control and tempo tool that turns a small amount of mana into a very awkward lock piece for opposing board states. In Doctor Who flavor, it reads like a containment chamber: you suspend one problem permanent, and as long as the artifact stays tapped, it stays out of the game. Because it can untap another nonland permanent and phase it out, it works best in slower white decks that want to answer attackers, shut off key utility creatures, or protect their own threats from removal at sorcery speed. It pairs especially well with permanents that care about tapping or untapping, such as artifacts with tap abilities or creatures you want to reuse for value. A strong deckbuilding tip is to include ways to keep The Pandorica tapped, since choosing not to untap it preserves the phase-out effect and effectively extends the exile-like pressure. In practice, this is a powerful grind card for control shells, not aggro.
