Blood Feud — Two Willing Gladiators
Blood Feud is a compact red sorcery that turns board presence into immediate trading potential. Cast for {4}{R}{R}, it forces two target creatures to fight so that relative power decides who survives. Use it to clear problematic blockers, to trade down after favorable pump effects, or to bait removal while your key threat remains intact.
The card pairs well with creatures that profit from dealing damage or from dying, and it functions as a reliable removal option when direct answers are scarce. The flavor leans into courtly rivalry so it fits decks that like theatrical conflict rather than prolonged attrition. Experienced players will note the timing and target sequencing matter when multiple fight triggers or replacement effects exist.
