Poops on Tron, Bloom Titan, and most 3-color decks that aren't prepared for it.

Boil is good, but as a control player you know how I feel about that card.

Relic of Progenitus, Rest in Peace, Grafdigger's Cage, Scavenging Ooze for graveyard hate.
Dragon's Claw, Kor Firewalker, Leyline of Sanctity for Burn.
Stony Silence, Creeping Corrosion, Shatterstorm, Kataki, War's Wage, Fracturing Gust for Affinity
Illness in the Ranks, Night of Souls' Betrayal for Tokens
Aven Mindcensor, Leonin Arbiter for search effects.
Rule of Law, Eidolon of Rhetoric for Storm.
Stain the Mind, Slaughter Games, Memoricide for single combo decks.
Sowing Salt, Fulminator Mage for Tron.
Defense Grid, Grand Abolisher for control/

I was wondering when Rest in Peace would be mentioned. Never understood why Relic of Progenitus is considered so great (other than being a colorless option).

Relic of Progenitus lets you draw a card. That is honestly the primary reason, since relic lets you draw a card when you crack it, it's basically a utility cantrip. Other nice things about relic are "sniping" where you pick off a card as an opponent tries to use it, only 1 mana to play, and the second most important thing, Relic of Progenitus only effects your graveyard when you let it, whereas Rest in Peace inherently shuts down all graveyards.

Creeping Corrosion/Shatterstorm against affinity. Or Stony Silence works too.
Burrenton Forge-Tender is great againsy burn.
Fulminator Mage is good against Tron.
Relic of Progenitus is excellent against any graveyard deck.
Those are some of the main ones.
