MTG Salvation

Rakdos Hero's Downfall upgrade. Very nice.

What do you call this removal spell?

No, I was asking, because this family performed this very act in my office just the other day, and I'm now representing them.

The pronunciation is be-devil, not bed-evil. lol

Glorious, format-defining staple in the making. The only thing that'd make me like it more is if it made target player lose 2 life. Turning on Spectacle with this would be gas

Well, it isn't Assassin's Trophy (or even Maelstrom Pulse) but a slighly better Hero's Downfall/Putrefy isn't too bad of a card.

Hero's Downfall was everywhere in standard for as long as it was legal. This card is probably better. Paired with Assassin's Trophy, Jund is looking mighty.

Is it wrong that I want this to be:

Choose one:
- Destroy target artifact, creature or planeswalker.
- Bedevil deals 3 damage to target player.

Eh, I ask too much.

EDIT: What I really wanted was to continue the uncommon cycle of Mortify and Putrefy with something like, say, "Terrify", which is just an instant Dreadbore for 1RB. Yes, it is less powerful but I like cycles.

Cycle Part 3:

Rarify - 1UR
Instant
Exile target spell or token creature.

Detoxify - 1WG
Instant
Destroy target enchantment, artifact or multicolor permanent.

Dulcify - 1UW
Instant
Choose one:
- Prevent all damage that would be dealt to you and permanents you control this turn.
- Counter target creature spell.

Cycle Part 2:

Calcify - 1RW
Instant
Exile target permanent with indestructible or target attacking or blocking creature.

Modify - 1UG
Instant
Choose one:
- Remove any number of counters from target permanent.
- Destroy target creature. Its controller creates a 3/3 blue and green mutant frog creature token.

Rest of cycle Part 1:

Ossify - 1UB
Instant
Choose one:
- Destroy target creature.
- Counter target noncreature spell.

Acidify - 1RG
Instant
Destroy target artifact, enchantment or nonbasic land.

Teferi Hero of Dominaria is finally under control. (Maybe)
