Divine Verdict

Theros Limited Challenges

The main thing that disappoints me about Theros limited is that it's nearly impossible to get problematic creatures off the board for long. Most of the removal is bounce (temporary) or Divine Verdict, and Bestow makes it even more difficult to remove threats properly. There's little possibility for "2-for-1's," which makes it feels like a big race to see who can suit up their bomby creature the most without a lot of interesting plays besides a few combat tricks - just my thoughts though.

The idea is that both sides are building up. My answer for your giant creature is my giant creature.

Appreciating Divine Verdict

Time to be positive! Sure, "Smite" or "Smite the Monstrous" weren't in Theros (or just aren't so far- two more sets in this block), but we got Divine Verdict, and that's pretty awesome! Thanks Maro!

Smite the Monstrous was problematic in a set where things become monstrous.
