Reset the Raid: Aetherize
Aetherize is a concise, dependable answer for when the table leans on combat to win the game. Castable at instant speed for a modest investment of mana, it sends every attacking creature back to its owner s hand. Use it to blunt an alpha strike, protect a vulnerable board state, or stall long enough to resolve a key follow up. In multiplayer Commander the single clean line of text scales well against go wide strategies and opens room for tempo plays on your next turn.
From a lore perspective the spell feels right in the Lost Caverns of Ixalan environment. It reads as a sudden rearrangement of the battlefield pulled through planar currents. Practically speaking it is a staple include in blue control shells and defensive decks that prize board resets over permanent removal. Pair it with bounce synergists or flash threats to turn the returned creatures into card advantage on subsequent turns.
