it's not meant to be used over extirpate (although discard + this turn one does have potential ). it's meant to be used for decks without access to extirpate, i use it in my mono-white deck's sideboard for match-ups against combo decks in legacy.

I played a great game yesterday. My friend had been playing a mill deck with this in, annoying me. Next game he played it again, but I played a discard deck.

Turn 1: Swamp, Duress - discard Surgical Extraction. Pay 2 life - Surgical Extraction on his Surgical Extraction.

If you can't beat them, join them.

nice card, saw it and immediately fell in love with it. 1B or 2 life, you can tap out no problem. if your running MBC imagin this wrecking havoc in turn 1 with say despise or horrifying revelation or even shriekhorn. you can wipe your opponents army with these.. and did i mention its exiled.

I think this card has more potential now that Innistrad is out. I think I might be putting a few of these in my side deck. Playing against a Wolf Run deck? Acidic Slim, destroy your Wolf Run or Ink Moth, remove the threat... Not too shabby now a days, 4/5.

A card that completely nopes combo decks for one, maybe zero mana? Come on, man!

I think the value of this card in standard just increased dramatically thanks to the new Undying mechanic in DA.

I know there's a combo between this and Relentless Rats, I just haven't figured out how to make it work yet. :/
