Title: GW removal
Post by: Mattao19 on November 17, 2013, 02:42:06 AM
So I've been playing GW Hexproof and could use some removal so I thought about {Pit. fight} bc my guys can get quite large and PF can get rid of very pesky blockers and even their threats like Desecration Demon and Blood Baron (my meta is filled with black decks) so what do you guys think? Is it a waste of a slot or could it work?

It's a very conditional card. Most of the time it's turned on, you're normally winning anyway. It could be sideboard though, because I can see how it would be good against certain match ups.

{Celestial Flare} can hit the barons win they're attacking.  a good sb card for sure even a one of {Planar Cleansing} since you don't have access to the better removal spells in your colors.

I actually agree about flare but disagree on cleansing. Everyone always forgets {Celestial Flare} also says "blocking"... As long as you have an Unflinching Courage you can use Flare to push through damage, gain your life, and kill their dude.

the flare is great for sure.  i dislike cleansing as well but its the only mono white wipe not many options in that department at all.

He doesn't need wipes. It's not in his game plan, and he can easily use something else to deal with a difficult board state that something that disadvantages him by 3+ cards

True I have flares SB and {Selesnya Charms} too but I like {Pit Foght} it can get rid of a lot of creatures

{selesnya charm} is amazing for removal. Cause when people get power hungry they tend to over power their creatures and BAM they get smacked by the charm. Epically against the stupid hydras.

4 in every deck in those colors for me. It can exile big stuff (including all of the gods), flash in a 2/2 w/vigilance (the best evergreen ability!) and it pumps +2/+2 w/trample which wins more games than you would believe.
