Wrecking Ball

Instant

Destroy target creature or land.

DemonDragonJ on Diabolical Machinations

4 months ago

I have replaced Wrecking Ball with Gravelighter, which reduced this deck's average converted mana cost from 4.35 to 4.34, since the creature better fits the theme of this deck.

DemonDragonJ on Angrath's Rampage or Gravelighter?

4 months ago

I have a copy of Wrecking Ball in my Thraximundar EDH deck, but I am planning to replace it with either Angrath's Rampage or Gravelighter, so I would like to ask for advice on which card other users here prefer.

What does everyone else say about this? Which card is the better replacement for Wrecking Ball?

DemonDragonJ on Should I Put Ruthless Lawbringer …

4 months ago

RiotRunner789, I was contemplating that card, until Ruthless Lawbringer was printed, since I can sacrifice the creature, itself, and then reanimate it, to reuse its ability.

Noire_Samhain, yes, I suppose that that is true, so I do not need to put the vampire into those decks, or at least not into my Teneb deck, since there is no card that I can remove to make room, for it, but I shall put it into my Tariel deck, in place of Wrecking Ball, because, as great as Wrecking Ball is, four mana feels rather high to destroy a creature and destroying lands, especially as an instant, makes other players feel great animosity toward the player who is destroying those lands.

DemonDragonJ on Fires of Purgatory

4 months ago

I have replaced Wrecking Ball with Ruthless Lawbringer, which reduced this deck's average converted mana cost from 3.77 to 3.76, because, as great as the former card was, the newer card better fits the theme of this deck.

DemonDragonJ on Savage Destruction

I have replaced Wrecking Ball with Mortality Spear, since the latter card is more versatile, and doing did upset the balance of red and green in this deck, but that is a minor issue.

Vessiliana on Vast of Vanity

Perhaps Vindicate in place of Wrecking Ball?

DemonDragonJ on Surtur's Grasp

3 years ago

Red and black cannot destroy enchantments, so I have made a card that is both of those colors and can destroy any type of permanent other than enchantments, as seen, below:

Surtur's Grasp Show

I know that WotC did print Feed the Swarm recently, but I personally believe that black should not be able to outright destroy enchantments; instead, it should deal with them in other ways, such as by having its own version of Enchanter's Bane, which is a way for red to deal with enchantments without outright destroying them. I also know that Wrecking Ball is an instant, but I made this card a sorcery, to prevent it from being strictly better than WB and also because I believe that being able to destory a land during another player's turn is extremely unfun.

What does everyone else say about this? Do you like this card?

DemonDragonJ on Flames of Darkness

3 years ago

I have replaced the two copies of Wrecking Ball in this deck with two additional copies of Bedevil , which reduced this deck's average converted mana cost from 3.56 to 3.50, which is very nice. Wrecking Ball is a nice card, especially since it is an instant that can destroy lands, but artifacts and planeswalkers will be annoying more often than will be lands, so I feel that that was a worthy replacement.
