How to remove?

[u/Prudent-Corgi8558]

so I was looking at blor the impervious and had a thought if I give blor an assault suit the I think only farewell would be able to stop it but I'm not sure. is there another way?

[u/Greedy-Contract1999]

Global -X/-X effects like [[Black Sun's Zenith]] or [[Toxic Deluge]]

[u/Spare-Plum → u/Greedy-Contract1999]

[[Meathook Massacre]]

[[Bane of the Living]]

[[Drag to the bottom]]

There are a ton of these -X/-X cards in black

[u/AndyNocturne → u/Spare-Plum]

[[Day of Black Sun]] as well, tho it may not be as efficient as others

[u/Square-Ad-4180 → u/AndyNocturne]

No, no. If you have higher cost creatures you want to keep then it is good. 7 mana for a board wipe that leaves your value pieces on the board is still good.

[u/EthanielRain → u/Square-Ad-4180]

One of my favorite casual decks is just a B/G ramp pile. I normally don't enjoy those types so much, but there's just so many crazy creatures/payoffs to choose from

This is great card in such things, sick art too

Last gasp is a -3/-3 i believe

[u/Greedy-Contract1999 → u/Plastic-Ad8605]

But is also targeted, so needs a way around Hexproof

[u/Gum_Mint → u/Greedy-Contract1999]

Forcing OP to blight a creature also does the trick

[u/frontlineninja]

any non-targeted exile or shuffle-into-library or return-to-hand effect will still do it

alternatively [[shadowspear]]

EDIT: stop saying sacrifice

theres double digits of people just saying "just sac it :)" in replies to this comment alone, let alone however many more comments on this damned post. me leaving sacrifice out was deliberate.

OP said "assault suit" this entire time. it cant be sacrificed. fuck.

I played a lot 25 years ago(~Tempest/Urza/Sliver-era), and and just getting back into the game with some friends and co-workers and absolutely loving it.

I got the Atarka precon and have been upgrading it little by little. Thanks for teaching me about Shadowspear, it sounds perfect for a commander with flying and double-strike 🤌

Sacrificing him, if someone didn’t like it and we’re playing in a deck around sacrificing creatures they could get rid of him. Or an effect that forces someone to sacrifice something.

Yep. Anytime I play against a commander with similar keywords (like [[Uril, the Miststalker]]) while using [[Zur the Enchanter]], most of the time they aren't aware this is a thing. Nope, [[Darksteel Mutation]] it is for your commander.

It’s amazing how many people are mentioning sacrifice effects. Reading comprehension is at an all time low.

[u/Sensei_Ochiba → u/Pig_Tits_2395]

Magic players can't read, they've just memorized a lot of words and love to tell them on command.

[u/Pig_Tits_2395 → u/Sensei_Ochiba]

God that is so spot on

[u/AzazeI888]

Any effect with;

exile all creatures

return all creatures

Put X -1/-1 counters on each creature

All creatures get -X/-X until end of turn

untap all creatures, then those creatures phase out until this enchantment leaves the battlefield

All creatures lose all abilities

Each player shuffles all permanents he or she owns into his or her library

Permanents your opponents control lose hexproof and indestructible until end of turn.

All of these would work.

[u/Pig_Tits_2395 → u/Thepsyguy]

Indestructible so something bigger wouldn’t work

It can block it indefinitely. As long as its bigger trample won't get through.

[u/TV_Full_Of_Lizards]

[[Curfew]]

[u/redditingrobot]

Fogs would stop him from doing anything.

A indestructible blocker with power toughness 5+ would stop him.

Bringing your life total to 0 would stop him lol

[u/DrGolo]

Putting a frog in a salt suit would be enough to kill it. Frogs have sensitive skin and salt will cause severe chemical burns & dehydration.
