Venomstrike Trap is a rare hunter spell card, from the Knights of the Frozen Throne set.
How to get
Venomstrike Trap can be obtained through Knights of the Frozen Throne card packs, or through crafting.
| Card | Crafting cost | Disenchanting |
|---|---|---|
| Venomstrike Trap | 100 | 20 |

Summoned minions
Strategy
This card is best played when your opponent has one or two large minions, to better ensure that you get to use the snake on a larger target.
This card works well since it's countered by playing into 
Freezing Trap, an action few players do.
However, this card gives your opponent an opportunity to react to it, requiring an investment of only 3 damage to neutralize. Hunter has other Secrets that are harder to play around, such as Freezing Trap or 
Wandering Monster, that guarantee value more consistently than Venomstrike Trap.
Trivia
- Venomstrike Trap's flavor text is a reference to the 2006 American action film Snakes on a Plane.
- The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "Assault on Icecrown Citadel Treasure" series, for the card Serpent's Nest.
