Scepter of Dominance

It's Icy Manipulator! But for cheaper! Oh, and only white decks can play it. Um, yay? If you're playing white and want to lock down your opponent's cards, this will do perfectly. Kithkin will probably like it.

Constructed- 3.5
Casual- 3
Multiplayer- 2.75
Limited- 4

Scepter of Dominance

If you had told me a year ago that booster packs would contain an artifact with two white mana in its casting cost, I would have replied "Oh, so the sequel to Unglued and Unhinged is coming out?" I'm still not sure why it couldn't have been an enchantment, but Scepter of Dominance is still pretty neat. The cost is pretty cheap, it doesn't kill things like Yosei that you don't want to kill, and you can even lock down Garruk Wildspeaker if you need to for some unknown reason.

Constructed: 2/5
Casual: 3/5
Limited: 4/5
Multiplayer: 2/5

Scepter of Dominance

 

Constructed: A real sleeper card. Should see it shine in Block with Stoic Angel.

 

Casual: Another tapper for white.

 

Limited: This is a great card to pick first. It was past to me from 3 players in a SSC draft. Let's just say when it hit the table I won each game. In fact I won the whole draft.

 

Multiplayer: More of a bother than fun.

 

Overall a great card that has yet to see some serious play.

 

Constructed: 3

Casual: 2

Limited: 4

Multiplayer: 2
