One of the best black cards there is. It has been a long time coming for a card of this nature to be printed. The nature of the card fits with white but this card definitely makes sense in black. I have 4 in my deck and it is one of the cornerstones of how my deck functions. I just hope they never reprint it..they already have Wrath of God for that. I just wonder if there will ever be a black version of Armageddon printed.
What would REALLY be awesome is if there was some type of 'End of Days'' card where all players put all permanents that they control into their graveyards, then discard their entire hands, then all players exile their graveyards. There may already be one for all I know..

Ahhh, Damnation. Such a fun card. Sets up graveyards perfectly for Mortivore, Rise from the Grave, etc. Black can use it much more efficiently than white can.

Almost $30 a pop now...
I would so love to be able to get these. As the myriad comments say:
-Blackest of the black
-Beautiful artwork and the frame + black edge makes it so imposing
-Stronger effect for black given the many graveyard interactions
To get a similar or more beneficial situation black will usually want a Living Death type effect (if you don't have a the kind of scratch for this guy!)

So much better than Wrath of God because decks with white usually run creatures, meaning some of your stuff gets hit too.
Decks with black have fewer creatures much of the time (such as U/B or esper control), making this almost always all-downside to your opponent

Anything less then 5 stars here is foolish.
If there is a top 10 Magic cards of all time list this should be in it or you don't know Magic.

This is the timeshifted version of Wrath of God.
