Choose one — • Target creature you control deals damage equal to its power to target creature or planeswalker an opponent controls. • Target planeswalker you control deals damage equal to its loyalty to target creature or planeswalker an opponent controls.
Predicted power
Standard 43 Eng.D+Usr.

Mono Green Landfall can supply large creatures reliably, but this remains board-dependent two-mana removal rather than a broadly live answer.

Best home Mono Green LandfallBand fringeConfidence 58%

Could be wrong if A strong new green creature shell or planeswalker package could make its damage scaling more reliable.

Pioneer 31 Eng.D-Usr.

It is much less reliable than Fatal Push, but creature-heavy Golgari lists could test it for board-centric creature mirrors.

Best home Golgari MidrangeBand fringeConfidence 66%

Could be wrong if Efficient existing removal may leave too little reason to accept the creature prerequisite.

Modern 25 Eng.FUsr.

Creatures Toolbox is the plausible shell, but Modern's efficient removal makes a two-mana spell requiring a creature in play hard to justify.

Best home Creatures ToolboxBand speculativeConfidence 70%

Could be wrong if A new resilient, high-power green shell could turn this into a worthwhile niche answer.

Legacy 19 Eng.FUsr.

It is far less efficient and reliable than Fatal Push and lacks a supplied Legacy shell that wants a two-mana conditional removal spell.

Band speculativeConfidence 74%

Could be wrong if An unusually efficient green creature engine could create a narrow sideboard role.

Pauper 42 Eng.D+Usr.

Compared with Cast Down, it is highly conditional, but instant-speed damage from a large creature gives green creature decks a plausible narrow answer.

Best home ElvesBand fringeConfidence 62%

Could be wrong if Its adoption depends on whether green decks can consistently field creatures large enough to trade up.

Commander 35 Eng.DUsr.

Superfriends can turn an established high-loyalty planeswalker into efficient removal, but the card is narrow and weaker than Beast Within broadly.

Best home SuperfriendsBand fringeConfidence 55%

Could be wrong if Higher planeswalker density or unusually large loyalty totals could make it a stronger niche inclusion.

Limited 62 Eng.B-Usr.

Instant-speed bite removal scales with your largest creature and avoids reciprocal damage; creature dependence keeps it solid rather than premium.

Best home Green creature decksBand solidConfidence 43%

Could be wrong if Unknown creature sizing, removal density, and draft speed could make its conditional floor much worse or better.

Conditional creature removal

“An instant-speed bite spell with a useful planeswalker mode, but its need for a board makes it mostly a niche constructed answer.”

AI prediction made before release — not a measured result. Real performance data replaces this once the set is legal and tournament results come in.
