Target Destruction Criteria

New 04 Oct 2018 Asked by evios31-blog 55 Comments

A number of cards recently (Vraska, relic seeker, status/statue, bounty agent) have "destroy target artifact, creature or enchantment" as opposed to the cleaner "destroy target nonland permanent". Is there a reason for this? i ask because one of the design principles you tend to stress is to keep things simpler/easier to understand and to avoid wordiness on cards (the text on bounty agent is a mouthful)


I assume the reason is so they can’t destroy planeswalkers.
