O. Ring: I just cut my last O.Ring on the MID update. I think my White removal is plentiful enough and versatile enough that this is no longer needed at my size.
Lightning Strike: If it can hit any target, it gets in. The ones that can't go face, I'm not interested in (besides Abrade, which is an all-star). I will happily play more of these if they're printed.
Doom Blade: I know a lot of people have become low on these, but I still like them. 2-mana-instant-speed-kill-most-creatures is good enough. I run 2.
Path to Exile: Path and StP are fantastic. Something with a targeting restriction like Condemn is not. But Path is great.
Languish/Earthquake: Never ran any of these at 360. Can't imagine I would in the future.
Disenchant: I still have good-old-fashioned Disenchant in my cube. There's a lot of must-answer Enchantments and powerful Artifacts. Disenchant is one of the few ways to get out of an Opposition lock in my cube, for example.
Disenchant a moxen feels like a losing proposition.
Sometimes. But if the Opponent goes Turn 1 land+mox, Turn 2 miss a land drop, I'm definitely going to Stone Rain them.
I like this one. I have enough sacrifice in black (reccuring nightmare, carrion feeder, rankle, woe strider, fiend artisan) that I think this could be a strong role player for black based aggro. More Zombies are also welcome.
How are people feeling about this card now? I'm looking for more life gain in black to offset the self-damage of my black section, so I'm considering replacing Skyclave Shade for this.
Better than Opt, but I still prefer Sleight of Hand and Serum Visions over this and Opt. It doesn't make it for me at 360, but I like 1 mana cantrips and would probably include this and Opt if I increased my cube size to 450.
Not getting Scry when hitting a creature or planeswalker is a bummer. It may still make it over Burst Lightning or Firebolt, but I don't think so. Still a fine Shock variant.
