If an opponent had a green creature enter the battlefield under their control this turn, you may pay {U} rather than pay this spell's mana cost. Tap up to two target creatures. Those creatures don't untap during their controller's next untap step.

    If a targeted creature is untapped at the time its controller's next untap step begins, the second part of the ability has no effect on it.

  • WotCMar 1, 2010

    If an affected creature changes controllers before its previous controller's next untap step, this ability will prevent it from untapping during its new controller's next untap step.

  • WotCMar 1, 2010

    You may target any two (or fewer) creatures. It's okay if any of them are already tapped. If you cast Permafrost Trap for {U}, you don't have to target the green creature that entered under an opponent's control.
