Vinefire Sabotage
Cindervines is a compact pressure piece that doubles as removal and a tax. The enchantment punishes opponents for casting noncreature spells by dealing one point of damage each time they reach for an instant or sorcery. In tempo matches that rely on repeated answers or card draw, those small increments of life loss add up and shape lines of play without committing board presence.
It also offers a sacrifice outlet that trades itself to destroy a problematic artifact or enchantment while dealing two damage to that permanent's controller. That secondary ability makes Cindervines a pragmatic inclusion in shells that need targeted disruption and incidental reach. In Ravnica terms this card reads like a guild operative that harasses opponents then dismantles troublesome attachments when its work is done.
