Wave Goodbye
Killing Wave slips into your black suite as a compact board control tool that punishes wide boards and tax-based defenses. The Innistrad Remastered retro frame shows the same brutal logic printed on the card: for each creature, its controller must either pay X life or sacrifice it. Cast with {X}{B}, Killing Wave scales to the size of the problem and turns opponent creature counts into immediate resource decisions.
Use Killing Wave when you want a non targeted clear that pressures opposing players without destroying their permanents directly. It pairs cleanly with life drain engines or when you hold spare mana to set X high enough to force concessions. The card reads plainly and plays predictably, making it a solid inclusion for control lists and grindy black midrange decks that win through attrition.
