How to make token decks rage quit.

This is among Magic's most satisfying cards to play correctly.
Nothing beats your opponent's bewildered facial expressions and incoherent exasperated stammering when the alpha strike that was supposed to kill you results in his or her entire army getting bounced.
Bonus objectives:
1) Use against an army of tokens.
2) Use against an army supported by +1/+1 counters or auras.
3) Bounce so many creatures that opponent has to discard at end of turn.
This card is pure beauty.

Simic and gruul are looking a little powerful, good thing Dimir can use this. And then, counter spells.

Potentially a one-sided Evacuation.
Can be handy in turbofog decks. Be careful facing Azorius or other ETB stuff though!

I think it's worse for Gruul than for Simic. In Simic, you could hold your utility evolve creatures back, and this would allow you to play the attacking creatures a second time, allowing for more evolve shenanigans. In Gruul, you will not only be attacking with pretty much all your creatures, but you might have Bloodrush'd them as well, which would be an extra loss. Of course, it's still a major pain for both, so keep an eye on your opponent's mana before you attack.

Remove enemy attackers means they won't get blockers next turn for your assault.

This card will be crucial in sealed or draft to slow down Boros's early game tempo.
It can also save you from an alphastrike or if your opponent activates Boros Charm's second or third options in the middle of what might otherwise have been a favorable creature exchange.

Combos well with Siren's Call (if you're playing casual)

It's no wash out, but still a fine card.
