Hahaha! Goodbye...umm...let's see...

It doesn't work against broodmate dragon, but the new demon could prove popular. Could see some sideboards. Maybe.

Vampires people! This is for Nighthawk, Nocturnus, and all those others.

There is a reason it is so narrow on its trap effect, black is its enemy color plus has the most power fliers currently.

If you look past that, I would still gladly pay 4 mana to kill a Baneslayer, especially in green.

Great against abyssal demon, vampire, baneslayer in a color that greatly lack creature removal spell.

Umm... I'm pretty sure it does work against a broodmate, as it counts as a black creature, and a red creature, and a green creature, and it has flying. Sure, you'll still have its "mate" to take care of, but 1 4/4 flying dragon is better than 2

All this card is is green's answer to vampires like vampiric nighthawk and is only really meant to be a sideboard card. Will definitely see even less use once zendikar is over.

@brunsbr103:

Why pay 4 mana to get rid of something? The only way you could utilize the 1 mana cost is by a black creature coming into play that turn. Seems too situational to combo with Abyssal Persecutor.

burnsbr seems like he has found a way to get great versatility with this card with abyssal persecutor... ZEN block format especially.

It's a shame they printed Plummet at common level so soon after this one. This card is totally useless now.

Takes out bloodwitch, which makes it a really good answer for my friend's W/g weenie deck (the g is for dauntless escort, mostly) for my vamps deck.
