RDW vs Sheoldred

Pioneer forum

Posted on Aug. 20, 2023, 10:22 p.m. by Icbrgr

What is the most optimal removal spell available to RDW for handling Sheoldred, the Apocalypse?

I currently think my best options are

  • Roast... sorcery speed but gets the job done with only using 1 card to answer.

  • Lightning Axe... takes 2 cards to use but in theory can kill Sheoldred before the opponent can gain any life.

Does anyone have an opinion one way or another or perhaps have a better suggestion for Mono-Red

I'm not a Pioneer expert, but if you have creatures, Outnumber or Fiery Conclusion might be options. If not, Spite of Mogis or Satyr Firedancer?

Nahiri's Warcrafting is my current go-to answer for Sheoldred. And it has other uses too!
