I talked with my gal Jaya and we agree with Goblin Exorcist: Burning down houses reduces the amount of haunted houses reliably and expeditiously. (Possible side effects include a local increase in haunted ruins of burned down houses, new hauntings by fire-themed poltergeists, smoke etc.)
Though: Are such specific colorhosers really something we (as designers and players) still want these days anymore?
Anti-white enchantment hate? That seems uselessly niche
Actually, worse. This seems like the kind of card where even if it was a 3/3, people wouldn't play it unless an opponent had the white enchantment, so it's doubly bad
I don't know, this is mostly me experimenting. I'm still trying to come up with some sideboard cards for the Level 2 red deck that aren't anti-lifegain.
Edit: I agree that this card, as it is, is pretty inane. It's relevant against, what, Worship?
