I would like this guy much better if he said destroy target noncreature, nonland permanent. Too often I see player 1 blow up something useful from everyone and a land of the player who's behind, player 2 clone this and blow up one of everyone else's lands, player 1 blink it and blow up more lands. Can be pretty unfun to play against in EDH.

Fetches your Dryad Arbor for you. Seems like a good Re-animator target. Edit: for nine mana combos with Strionic Resonator for double the destruction/ Ramp. Or blink it and pay 2 for Strionic.

turn 6, they play Elspeth.
my turn 6, i play this and kill Elspeth. lol. (i say turn 6 cause this goes in a ramp deck.)
i did that once, and that laughed and went "lol ok."
"OK!? OK!? i just got rid of your Elspeth, put out a 6/8 with reach, and thinned out my deck, and your reply was OK, like i didn't just swing the entire game around? whatever, i swing for 6....."
"oh yeah... shit."
also, you can laugh at their Desecration Demons.

Unbelievable card. In a typical multiplayer EDH game, this might be the most devastating kicked Rite of Replication. I'll put five 6/8 creatures with reach, I destroy 5 noncreature permanents of my choice for each player, I put 15 forests on the battlefield. You could argue a few other cards are better, but Sylvan Primordial costs one dollar. Solid gold.

I imprint this on my Mimic Vat all the time and I don't even have forests to fetch.

Can someone read those rulings for me and explain that last bit about targeting a creature?

Banhammered, sadly. Though i quite understand how annoying it is, like in my karador deck. I mean, destroying 3 planeswalker at once, sac it for something (token,manas, or else), and cast it again from the graveyard next turn?

This card was the perfect fit for my first EDH deck and the card I was most excited to play. Banned just a week before I would have been able to finish it...

When nature calls, ban it in EDH.

Prime Time and Sylvan banned... the EDH rules committee really seems to hate green players.
