This is probably going to rise in value in foil thanks to Avacyn, Griselbrand and Kaalia. Gentlemen, we have now reached a world where this feels like simply a reasonable sideboard card against horrendously broken stupidly powerful Dumb Shit.
Here's some good reasons to have this in your Commander 'sideboard' (ie your onhand binder of stuff.)
Kaalia of the Vast. Griselbrand. Venser's Journal. Avacyn. Worldslayer. Lich. yeah. (say in exact same voice Iron Man did in Avengers)
Griselbrand's Journal combo means you have to be able to exile hands (and probably graveyards, because Kaalia is going to be running big dumb creatures and has access to White and Black)
Avacyn + Lich + Worldslayer means you really need to be able exile the whole battlefield before you're overrun.
Enchantment + Planeswalke... (see all)

Decree of Annihilation: 
(2red):
Restart the game. Break the game in anyway you wish.
Cycling 
(2red): Stop the game for about 10 turns. Sort of harder the break here.
PS: I can't get coloured mana symbols to work. Sorry.

Duddits: No. This hits everything, regardless of protection or indestructability, as it is a sweeping exile.

once had a deck that used Jhoira of the Ghitu to suspend Eye of the Storm and this... stick a few token makers, some drawing, maybe some land search, and everything else being 1 drop spells. It took about one game before everyone started beating me up before it could go off.

"Suspend this along with some fatties with Jhoira."

"You win the game," looks at the other EDH players, "Want to play for second place?"
I would love to see this receive errata that allows it to exile Planeswalkers. Make it the most absolutely fantastic red mass destruction spell ever.
~MyrBattlecube
Notice how it doesn't hit enchantments either?

Guys, Oblivion Ring doesn't change a thing as this doesn't touch enchantments, so whatever your ring'd doesn't come back. Same with Journey to Nowhere.
