With Putrefy's reprint in Dragon's Maze, expect this thing's prevalence to plummet. This would be competitive with Putrefy if it were 2Black (making it a slight upgrade to Rend Flesh among other cards) or BlackBlack (consider Terminate, which is costed at BlackRed), but at 1BlackBlack there's no reason to run this in any BlackGreen standard deck. That said, 3.5/5 for at least being one of the most elegant cards in this game's history.

It's official, Assassinate is useless.

(Except in heavily multicolor decks where you can very easily tap creatures for some reason.)

Well, they finally did it now....
They gave black the ability to kill itself, one of its major weaknesses. Hail to the power creep!

The extra Black does NOT give it justice and this is WAY above the curve. This will essentially replace all Doom Blades, Go for the Throats and Terrors. Looks like Eyeblight's Ending has met its end, and the good old Rend Flesh debate is finally over.

This plus Grasp of Darkness are going to be standard black removal now. I would mention Dismember but that's powerful removal for everybody...

The only thing it lacks it the can't be regenerated clause, which is useful more than some people give it credit for, and it still can't whack an indestructible creature like -X/-X spells can. Still, this is excellent. The whole "nonblack" thing with old black "destroy" was a real drawback.

And Unma... (see all)

Too slow for black spot removal.

Like I always said - in Black, you can never have too much murder.

5/5

He has to be faking it. Look, he's still holding his last power ring. I mean, whenever Sonic had a ring on him he was good for another TWO hits at least.

Seriously though, THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS! I mean,

3Black: fine -
BlackBlackBlack: sure, why not -
but 1BlackBlack: sigh...

I supposed Black did need an instant speed, non-situational removal at a low cost. Oh well. At least it's not overly splashable. Would've been really nice if it were uncommon, though - less of 'em flying around. Well, it's back to hexproofing, totem armoring and granting protection for me. My Knight of the Reliquary shares a condo on the Sejiri Steppe with Ruin Ghost.

@Ideatog: Metalocalypse? nice lol
