Deadly Cover Up — Evidence and Extinction
Deadly Cover-Up is a calculated board wipe for control decks that value both removal and resource denial. For {3}{B}{B} and the optional collect evidence 6 cost you get a clean sweep of the battlefield plus a targeted graveyard purge that can cascade into exiling copies from hand and library. The effect is straightforward on its face. The added evidence clause lets you decide if you need the extra surgical removal or merely the creature reset.
Use this sorcery when you can force an opponent to lose both board presence and specific threats from every zone. It pairs well with graveyard disruption and decks that pressure opponents into keeping key cards in hand. In foil near mint form from Murders at Karlov Manor this card fits a strategy that blends economy of removal with late game attrition.

Card Text / Rules Text (Printed) – As an additional cost to cast this spell, you may collect evidence 6. Destroy all creatures. If evidence was collected, exile a card from an opponent's graveyard. Then search its owner's graveyard, hand, and library for any number of cards with that name and exile them. That player shuffles, then draws a card for each card exiled from their hand this way.
