Felling Blow — Pinpoint Strike
Felling Blow is a compact, efficient removal tool that scales with your board. Cast for {2}{G}, it places a +1/+1 counter on a creature you control and then forces that creature to deal damage equal to its power to an opponent's creature. That sequence rewards building around incremental growth generators or creatures that arrive with counters already in place. Play it when you need to convert a single buff into immediate removal without committing multiple resources.
For players who value tempo and smart trades, Felling Blow fits into both creature-centric midrange shells and decks that pump a single threat. The card reads cleanly and resolves predictably, which makes it easy to sequence with combat and activated abilities. Use it to trade up, clear a blocker, or finish off a damaged threat; the interaction between the +1/+1 counter and damage dealing is what gives this uncommon its practical edge in the Foundations set.
