Destroy All the Things

Sorcery



Exile all permanents, then all cards in all players' hands, then all cards in all players' graveyards, then all cards in all players' libraries. Then exile those cards from the exile zone.


Nah, we could just do with something like Merciless Eviction.

EDIT: I'm actually serious, that card seems pretty balanced as a sweeper for Duels. Check list:

- 6 turns is plenty for aggro to kill you.
- Dual colour restricted.
- Has a choice involved rather than a "catch all" mode.
- Control decks mirrors will be pretty interesting since this would kill your own limited PW wincons if you're behind.
- Maindeckable artifacts/enchantments matter hate.

Magic's a simple game, 2 people take turns playing cards and in the end Divinevert wins 2-0...

I'd reinstall Duels if this happened.

I mean, Multiform Wonder is already their energy based Aetherling.

Multiform Wonder wishes it was anything like Aetherling.

They could reprint Merciless Eviction with a picture of Chandra's mother getting thrown out on the street

Cards that can use either mana or energy to cast (interchangeable).

A card that uses energy similarly to Rainbow Efreet but with a flicker effect instead of Phasing.

Aether Revolt Speculation? Pfff, I only talk about about real cards, thank you very much.

Image

Yahenni's Expertise
2BB Sorcery (Rare)
All creatures get -3/-3 until end of turn.
You may cast a card with converted mana cost 3 or less from your hand without paying its mana cost.

Trophy Mage
2U (Uncommon)
Creature - Human Wizard
When ~ enters the battlefield, you may search your library for an artifact card with converted mana cost 3, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.
2/2

Scrap Trawler
3 (Rare)
Artifact Creature - Construct
Whenever ~ or another artifact you control is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, return to your hand target artifact card in your graveyard with lesser converted mana cost.
3/2

Quicksmith Rebel
3R (probably rare if launch promo, but symbol is obscured)
Creature - Human Artificer
When ~ enters the battlefield, target artifact [creature? you control?] gains "T: This artifact [...] to target creature or [...] you control [...]
?/?

Blame/Thank reddit for the lack of full text on the last one. Looks like we have a 3CMC theme going on here.

Good job, GimmickMan. Don't know if we'll get Yahenni's Expertise since we didn't get board wipe in Kaladesh, and this one seems good.

Even in mono black and without comboing this with Lili herself (who is a mythic), this lets you chain your sweeper into read the bones to refill your hand or another -X/-X spell to kill their one remaining creature with 3+ toughness. Or you can sweep, use this to cast a creature, and crew one of your artifacts to swing into a clear board.

It gets even better with other colors. It's a really nice card and I hope we get it.

Esper would love to be able to drop the 5cmc sweepers and simply move to four 4cmc sweepers. Basically go UBw

Yeah it looks pretty sweet and it can cast any 3cc or under so it will work in 2+ color builds.

Clear those pesky Thopters into Lathnu Hellion... Boom!

I'd bet we don't get the sweeper since we have Languish. Shame, really; the card's amazing and would give an incentive to play Black again - practically a 1-mana sweeper seems pretty amazing and there are a lot of great cards to get into the game. EMN Lili, OGW Nissa, flip Nissa, Tireless Tracker, Trophy Mage, Dynavolt Tower etc.

Trophy Mage into Scrap Trawler seems plain amazing. Give all your artifacts Soulshift? Why not?!
This will be a lot less great in Duels, but even here returning something like an Alchemist's Vial seems dec. Also this finally gives us more incentive to play Metalwork Colossus.

Quicksmith Rebel likely reads : "When Quicksmith Rebel enters the battlefield, target artifact gets: "T: This artifact deals damage equal to its converted mana cost to target creature or player" as long as you control Quicksmith Rebel" (Source: http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/magic-fundamentals/the-rumor-mill/764189-yahennis-expertise-scrap-trawler-trophy-mage-and?comment=14).

I doubt the damage is equal to the converted mana cost, because I don't think there's enough Space for all that text. More likely is "does 1 point of damage to target creature or player", with a bit of luck, it may be 2 points...
