Pitfall Trap

Instant — Trap    (CMC:3)

If exactly one creature is attacking, you may pay rather than pay Pitfall Trap's mana cost. Destroy target attacking creature without flying.

Each spike is poisoned—the trapmaker's idea of mercy.

You may ignore a Trap's alternative cost condition and simply cast it for its normal mana cost. This is true even if its alternative cost condition has been met.
10/1/2009
Casting a Trap by paying its alternative cost doesn't change its mana cost or converted mana cost. The only difference is the cost you actually pay.
10/1/2009
Effects that increase or reduce the cost to cast a Trap will apply to whichever cost you chose to pay.
