Instant speed exile removal? That seems pretty good, even for a 4-drop. It gets rid of Planeswalkers for 1 more mana than Hero's Downfall and can even get rid of Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker when he's +1'ed up. Pretty good flavor text too.

I feel like it's both a fix and an upgrade to Vindicate .

The article it was spoiled in said something similar.

It's powerful for sure

It's like oblivion ring with no downside at instant speed for 4 mana. Cards insane.

More Abzan EDH removal. Yay.

Vindicate is Legacy playable, and this card will almost certainly be Standard playable. Killing Gods, Banishing Light and others seems damn good.

I want 4x now. Damn this appearing with the rest of the removal currently in standard. Between Hero's Downfall , Banishing Light and now this B/W has so much hate for planeswalkers.

Well, print some draw and esper is back in session, given that they just spoiled a 5 mana kill-everything-and-everything-bestowed-onto-everything card.

You've got Sign in Blood ... Is that good enough? Jace's Ingenuity and Divination are there as well.

Modern? Or is it too slow?

Read the bones.

That's what I was forgetting. :)

I really like this card. Gahhhhhhh the spoilers are making my decisions of what to play after rotation so hard

September 2, 2014 12:55 p.m.

Infinimage007

Way too slow for Modern. I'm actually failing to think of a permanent that I would hit with it that doesn't already have better removal in Modern in b/w colors.

Infinimage007 says... #16

Okay thought so.

Holy smack

I feel like this might just be the most powerful card spoiled as of yet. Between this and Crackling Doom , I might just play Mardu Mid/Control.

September 2, 2014 1:22 p.m.

CChaos says... #19

So any idea why this is a mardu spell?

September 2, 2014 2:23 p.m.

ChiefBell says... #20

It's about fighting and ferocity.

September 2, 2014 2:24 p.m.

GoldGhost012 says... #21

It's not a Mardu spell. Note the lack of the Mardu watermark in the text box. The flavor text is Marsh, but it does not belong to any of the clans.

Rayenous says... #22

Not to be confused with "Udder End"... destroy target Bovine.

Mogis and his kind cower at the sight of Udder End

September 2, 2014 2:52 p.m.

To hell with Udder End. Mogis cowers at the sight of this card too!

Im going to try to express my joy and awe in words. Here goes nothing

Heeeeeez subba blubba shhhopeeeeeee glong

i can't do it

September 2, 2014 2:57 p.m.

I'm sad it's not a 3 mana spell at least. Not that it should be (that would just be too good.) I just want cheaper removal this block.

I don't know whether I want to play it or not... Then again, Sylvan Caryatid loves to help me out with this card. Ugggh, WOTC, why can I Doom Blade things anymore?!

September 2, 2014 4:05 p.m.

'Why can't I Doom Blade anything anymore?!'

I'm dumb.

I feel like between this and some other things, abzan midrange will be pretty good, it's got sorin as a walker, this for removal, caryatid and courser for ramp/fixing, Abzan Ascendancy for buff and value out of creatures. Anyone else see this being a thing? maybe just straight orzhov, but I think splashing/having green would be worth it.

September 2, 2014 4:32 p.m.

Sure is a versatile piece of removal. In the end it will be inefficient/overcosted in many situations.

September 2, 2014 6:08 p.m.

Kravian says... #30

Abzan Ascendancy makes a good start better, and still lets you End Hostilities with spirits all up in their board if things go sideways. Very very cool. Spirit Bonds thoughts?

September 2, 2014 6:45 p.m.

@Rasta_Viking29 Just like Maelstrom Pulse . I expect it to see some niche play.

September 2, 2014 7:14 p.m.

TheGamer says... #32

I'm pretty sure this is gonna see constructed play. 4 mana removal spell is kinda iffy, and then you realize that its instant speed exile anything you want for 4, and then you realize its great.

geggoo sdud xxed wap?

still can't do it

elvesbaby says... #34

I wouldnt say its an upgrade to Vindicate, that card is something special, but sometimes, ONLY sometimes, will utter end be more useful, and this is against anything with indestructable. Sadly being able to hit lands is just too good, so Vindicate will always be better
