Forgotten Realms Cards

There two stand out so far. Portable Hole hits alot of the format, Power Word Kill is a bit week but still better than stuff like [[smother]] that sometimes see play.
-
Smother got outmoded by Eliminate, which obviously hits things that Power Word Kill doesn't (planeswalkers). Power Word Kill is interesting, but in a very weird niche. Victim of Night is probably a less relevant type restriction but harder to cost at BB; still, a deck that wants a 1B removal spell instead of plow, trophy, or other stuff presumably has basically just underground sea for mana sources.

Power Word Kill is a flavor win but I think that is about it. The most relevant thing I can think of here is it cannot kill Griselbrand or Scourge of the Skyclaves, one of which sees plenty of play in vintage and the other has potential. I think the issue with it overall is not many people are looking for a doomblade anymore.

If PWK were one mana cheaper I think it would be a big win for doomsday but I think I will keep playing eliminates for narset, oko, and dack.
