How does Misdirection work in MTG?
Misdirection doesn't work on spells that don't have targets or spells with multiple targets. It’s all about those single-target spells. So, you can’t Misdirect a board wipe, since they don’t target. Keep it in mind to avoid any 'gotcha' moments during play.

In MTG, Misdirection is a spell that changes the target of a spell with a single target. You cast Misdirection by discarding a blue card in addition to paying its mana cost, then choose a new target for the spell being redirected. It's a neat trick for turning your opponent's spells against them or protecting your key cards from being targeted!
Tbh, Misdirection is kinda overrated. Sure, changing a spell's target can save you in niche situations, but most times, you're better off with cards that counter rather than redirect. Just my hot take!
