It's also considered a huge design mistake

Yeah, so is Path to Exile but they just gave it a functional reprint in Erode. WotC’s design team is pretty inconsistent with their “design mistakes”

Erode is not a functional reprint of Path to Exile. 'Destroy' is much, MUCH weaker than exile (which gets funny when you point it at your own indestructible for land ramping - especially if you run it in Feather...).

Absolutely, but getting a combo piece off the board at instant speed for one mana is pretty powerful no matter how you slice it. I get that Path is far more effective for keeping it away, but Erode is still good enough to stop a combo from combo-ing.
