Overwhelming Forces

Wraths Insights

If my searching skills aren't failing me, there've been 3-4 Wraths that keep your own board alive, all in black, like you said. (Dread Cacodemon, In Garruk's Wake, Overwhelming Forces for 1v1, Plague Wind) There've been two instant speed wraths (Fated Retribution, Rout) So it looks like one sided wraths are more likely.

Blue-Red Philosophy

Just got a chance to really listen to the Blue podcast, and I'm still at a loss for why there needs to be such a hard line between blue and red philosophy. Everything about them seems to be polar opposites rather than the subtle differences that exist between the other colors, like BG focus on the cycle of life, RW focus on overwhelming forces, GU focus on evolution, and WB focus on the group. UR doesn't seem to have this true cross-cutting theme that connects the two.

Blue and red are the two colors who enjoys trickery and they have a number of mechanics (like forking, redirecting, temporary stealing, etc.) that play into this feel.
