The thing I love most about this card is not only does it flat out win games, it does so in style without being insanely broken like most game winners nowadays. Long live Bolas!

One day, they're going to do "From the Vault: Gold" and this will get it's deserved Mythic Status.
True, FTV: Legends was a sad excuse for a Vault because too MANY things from Alara were present. But, I think years from now this will still look like it should have been Mythic Rare.
I consider Cruel Ultimatum to be part of a Super Mega Ultra Cycle with
Terminate, Vindicate, Pernicious Deed, and Glimpse the Unthinkable.
The Cycle of Bad Ass Shit Black can do with Multicolor.

After a couple Blightnings leading up to this baby, expect your opponent to lose all morale, if not the game.
This card has won me the game after almost losing multiple times.

Only once did my opponent resolve this and lose, and then he was already being beaten down by a huge army. A game-winner.

"Concentrate" 2 Blue Blue
"Raise Dead" Black
"Lava Axe" 4 Red
"Three Tragedies" 3 Black Black
"Cruel Edict" 1 Black
Equals to...
"Cruel Ultimatum" Blue Blue Black Black Black Red Red
This card could be called crusher of the hopes...

This card is good but the problem is that my games end with me having around 6 mana. The only bad thing about this card is that its converted mana cost is 7

Significant card advantage. Rarely will you be disappointing if this resolves.
