Powerful shutdown card, perfect sideboard or player-specific tool to run. I'd prefer it in white since most blue decks like to run artifacts, but blue definitely makes more control sense.
with the first, the affinity player has to tap all their lands just to save those, but with energy flux they don't even get that opportunity.

@obsessed addict Kataki is still nice though, since it costs 2 and can attack, also can be tutored easily for in a Survival of the Fittest or Birthing Pod deck. This seems like the Enchantress answer. Different SBs for different decks. It's a fair comparison, though, compared to Dark Confidant vs Dark Tutelage, where one clearly outshines the other.

This is a fun budget sideboard card against Vintage Stax, but Null Rod is miles ahead of it.
I keep thinking, there has to be some way this is better, because it deals with the Stax player's Thorn of Amethyst and Sphere of Resistance. But I've never actually been in a situation where I drew a Null Rod and thought, I really wish I had drawn an Energy Flux...
