Pojo's Magic The Gathering
Card of the Day

Six is
a lot, but I still see the card getting
played. It has cycling so you can run
through it early or when not needed. You
don't play it over Wrath, but in addition to
it. I think people may be surprised when U/W
shows up with this thing and blows up the world
with it. In
limited, it's a first pick and an obvious
game-swinger. Even a reason to play white if
you're not already.
Constructed:3.5
Limited: 5 |

So here is the block
Wrath. At 6 mana, it is really more of a
Nevinyrral's Disk than a wrath. The cycling is a
nice bonus, but I hardly ever see it being used.
This will get played in block, and that's about
it. The control decks looking for a 5th Wrath
will use Kirtar's Wrath instead, since the
control player may have a random Compulsion or
something like that out.
In limited, it's a
Wrath. I'd play it, as it has the definite
possibility of saving me.
Constructed: 1.5
Limited: 3

Purify and Wrath of God rolled into one! Apart
form
the fact that this card doesn't bury creatures (it
only destroys them whigh means they can
regenerate),
the real thing that will stop this card from
seeing
play is its casting cost. There are so many fast
deck
around at the moment that waiting until turn 6 for
your wrath of god is unacceptable. The only deck
this
card could fit into is U/W millstone.
Unfortunately,
when invasion rotates out it will take fact or
fiction
with it which leaves the only good blue card
drawing
spell (apart from read the runes) will be
compulsion
which dies when you play Akroma's vengeance. A 2
in
Standard constructed.
In block constructed if you want a wrath of god
effect
you pretty much have to play this card so it will
see
some use. A 3.5 in onslaught block constructed.
I'll give this card a 3 when your behind on
permanents
playing the vengeance will help you, when your
ahead
it will harm you.

When I first heard of this card, I heard of it as,
"The new Disk."
I really don't think it is. It certainly is
solid, though, and it is
very useful. If is a draft bomb, 99.9% of
the time taken first. It
will be rare that you find a better card in the
pack.
In constructed, six mana is hefty for just about
anything. thsi effect
could be worth it, but it isn't the new disk
because it's limited to
white, it is 6 mana, it's a sorcery, and there's
no sitting for a turn.
This card will see play with Wrath of God if
U/W catches on, which is
almost certainly will with that stupid
Mobilization deck catching wind
right now.
Outside of Type II, I don't think it will see
play. Too many alternatives.
Constructed (Type II) - 3
Constructed (Non Type II) - 1.5
Limited - 5
