should of said "Name a creature, exile all creatures with the chosen name". would have been nice to for this to get rid of hexproof creatures, even if there can only be one Sigarda, Host of Herons on the battle feild at a time.

Just a odd question here for this card, as it has been a point of debate with friends, does this card include any creatures with the same name in deck/hand or is it only those out on the battlefield or graveyard?

@Relyt7

Pick 1.

Whenever you cast a targeted spell, you name the target while casting, before resolution.

P1 controls:
Keeper A
Keeper B
Keeper C

So P2 has to say "I cast Sever the Bloodline targeting Keeper A" (it doesn't matter which one, this is just for example's sake). In response transform Keeper A. Now Keeper A is Lord of Lineage A. Upon resolution Sever the Bloodline looks for Keeper A, can't find Keeper A as a legal target and is therefore countered.

EDIT: I've talked about it with my friend and his opinion was that the spell would not be countered and just exile the one transformed card and cards with the same name. Either way the answer is to pick option 1 but I'm not sure just how bad the extent of the damage (to you) will be.

From a flavor point of view, the name says to me something like you're going back in time and slaying an ancestor of someone that's troubling you now" So, exile makes more sense.
In terms of color-pie, exile was initially white and almost never appeared in black on a removal spell. black does a good job of exiling graveyards, but not stuff in play. I really don't feel like this is meant to be a black card.
With constructed environments in mind (standard), It is something a lot of decks need. lingering souls is dominating, this card is quite splashable and very meta-ed as black cannot deal with intangible virtue itself and green cannot deal with the tokens en-masse. it punishes players that overextend for an easy kill.

This is a very nice card that unfortunately bleeds the color-pie. Exile perhaps wasn't necessary to still achieve the same constructed impact; however, i love the flavor of the card and exile was important to keep that.

This has:
- No additional targeting restrictions.
- Exiles target.
- Sometimes exiles multiple targets in one resolution.
- Reusable.
- Breaks the Color Pie.
Extremely good for Black. 'Sacrifice' -effect would have been good enough.

Only 3/5 for unnecessary Color Pie bleed.
