$6 is probably a fair price. I mean, what was {Heroes Downfall} at? Like $15 at one time. This is better, just more mana intensive, so it will be played less.

Near Vindicate

Will get ridiculously expensive.
Must preorder all of them!

Might be better. Exile and instant speed. Why couldn't they have put 1 of these cards into Theros? That set seems weaker the more Khans gets spoiled.

I can't see it being that much over $10, {Vindicate} is super strong and printed way less, and it's only $20. This card is going to be sick however. Can't wait to get one.
I was close when I said potential {vindicate} reprint ;)

For 4 mana they could have made it "target permanent" IMO

Falcon182

Also instant speed & exile. Kinda odd that it's exile not destroy.

Its just good enough to see play, without being completely broken. Design and Development have been getting better at finding that line with new cards. Like {Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx}, right on that edge.

New design philosophy abhors land destruction. Which is why it is non-land.

I understand they don't like land destruction but man-lands are a thing!  I think at 4 mana it would not be OP if it was target permanent

How would you like to miss your T4 land drop and they don't and they kill one of your lands taking you to 2 lands against their 4?
I don't like looking at {mutavault} or {celestial collonade} while chilling with an {abrupt decay} in my hand either.

If you get a fourth straight land drop than you deserve to cast something cool :)

But this is a modern legal vindicate.  That'll probably make it worth more.
It also costs 500 mana

So. Probably missed it but has there been the {R}{W}{B} ascendancy card spoiled?

We're getting greedy :P

{Vindicate} probably is too good for Standard. It doesn't help that {Thoughtseize} is in Standard already.
A non land version on vindicate might be ok

Pretty much hit the nail on the head here. And dudcore got shown up...lol Utter End too nice
