Fills out the sorcery slot, while also being the inverse of Asphyxiate.

Gave it a name.

Is this really the kind of removal we want to push in this set for white? I think this kind of need has moved to solvable removal like Silkwrap in white.

We also have no common enchantment removal yet which is more typical for white common spells than creature destruction.

Suggestion: + Replace this at common with Solemn Offering. + Earmark Fade Away for uncommon slot later.

It's not true that we have no common enchantment removal. See Cleansing Light.

This card is a little weak though. It was meant to be a mirror to Asphyxiate.

­Asphyxiate is already in the set. Having both seems a bit much.

That card already exists in Assassinate, I don't think we need to colour swap it.

"That card already exists in Assassinate, I don't think we need to colour swap it."

­Sheer Drop has already done that. This is an established white/black effect. My concern is its a bit too similar to Asphyxiate and when both are common will make things to same-y.

Ok, then I don't get why it needs alternate mana costs? Just to mirror Asphyxiate? Don't think we need to worsen a card just for that.

In either case, it always bugged me that this is a weak card.

So we need to replace this with something apparently.
