Green just gave Black a massive middle finger with this one.
With Wizard's obsession with Mythic Rares, how did this wind up as a lowly Rare?

Cool. I never thought that Wizards would do this. Gravepact, Savra, and Kuon are no longer the superiority complexities that they used to be. However....
First I saw two Privileged Positions. Then Elspeth's ultimate (or something equivalent). There is also True Believer. All of that was cool. I still hyped up Innocent Blood and even Simplify. But this card is one more important step in a player becoming unstoppable. This player, mind you, likes to stack his deck. I don't mind because it doesn't matter too much.
But yeah, this is one more piece for the unstoppable board position..... hmmm........ funny.....

@ Eved,
You've probably resolved this by now, but... Urge to Feed does not contain the words sacrifice in the de***ion. It just lowers power and toughness. (Buries even indestructible creatures should their health reach zero or below.)

We should look at this card without considering how it nutrilizes annihilator to see its true usefulness, as annihilator is not incredibly heavily run. This guy stops Consuming Vapors AND Gatekeeper of Malakir. Perhaps not worth a slot in a deck yet, but when Shards vanishes from Standard, it may find a home.

Should be uncommon.
And Mode, fun fact of the day: Oxygen is the strongest normal matter pollutant. :D Isn't that cool? If you dispute this, look up the evolution of plants, and see what happened when they evolved. YET LIFE GOES ON.
But this has nothing to do with this card.
Actually, you could run the combo you're talking about quite easily in a multiplayer game. Just hand it to the opponent who's least likely to sacrifice their stuffs.
But yes! This gets rid of annihilator! Which is why it should be uncommon, so that more people can run it.
It also messes up stupid Thraximundar EDH decks. It also happens to mess up my Teneb the Harvester deck, but thus far I have not run into it. :) And pretty much everything else messes up my Harvester deck, anyway.

@metalevolence: because, it hoses down a mechanic, especially one that hasn't been disabled until now
just think how Everlasting Torment or Stigma Lasher was received (even though we had a rain of gore before)
