A Basketball? That can't kill a squirrel! Unless you throw it like... really hard.

Weird. The card is named Kill! Destroy!, but gatherer calls it kill destroy (no exclamation marks). Should this get fixed?

the squirrel is probably because you can just kill off the squirrel token spawned by "form of the squirrel"

Because nobody seems to have pointed it out, if you put the flavourtexts in this order:
1. Creature Guy
2. Save Life
3. Deal Damage
4. Spell Counter
5. Kill Destroy

You get a nice little rhyme:
"There once was a player named Quinn, who consistently managed to win. Until he got singed, playing Unhinged, getting Gotcha'd again and again."

A recurrable Terror is just overpowered in my opinion.

Love the art. Kinda reminds me of Magnetic Mountain.

Why aren't they also throwing a kitchen sink?

@Drecon84
I've noticed that a lot on gatherer. Many names don't have exclaimation points like this, but quite a few flavor text lines are missing the "!" at the end for some weird reason on gatherer. It's not all of them ("Ach! Hans, Run!" is fine) but a few random ones.

The original go for the throat! Arguably superior as well.

@TPmanW I'll give you a bit of homework, just to help you along the way.

For chapter one of Black Creature destruction, please compare Doom Blade to Kill Destroy and Go for the Throat to Kill Destroy.

Also, I'd like you to read up on what "Facepalm" is (no wikipedia! That's cheating!)

To anyone who thinks a basketball won't kill a squirrel:
