There is so much exiling in this set... and I can’t figure out why. It made sense for sets like theros where the central mechanic was a form of reanimation but there aren’t a ton of indestructible threats in this set and nothing seems to demand all of the exiling we’ve seen so far (yes, even counting the 2 cmc 4 sagas that revive a creature).

Draugr and Elves have reanimation, we still have ECD, possible reanimation themes in the FR and innistrad 3.0 sets
I'm unsure about Crush the Weak in Modern (I think R(/x) Prowess is the only deck that will give it a shot). On the one hand, it's a small board wipe that can cost 1 mana on a turn when you may want to Prowess pump to heck. And it's a "Pyroclasm" that Obosh, the Preypiercer Companion decks can include. And it exiles instead of kills. On the other hand, Pyroclasm does its job faster, and Kozilek's Return is an instant that can't be hosed by Burrenton Forge-Tender.
It's a Foretell Pyroclasm and a reprint. Solid cards for Limited, consider testing for Constructed?
