Oblivion Stone: Wipe with Purpose
Oblivion Stone provides a practical route to manage a crowded board. For {4} you tap to put a fate counter on a target permanent, shaping what remains as the game unfolds. This ability plays well with other artifacts and helps you set up a controlled wipe in a later turn. In Commander, where boards tend to scale, this artifact offers a scalable answer without overcommitting resources. In Light Play condition, the piece shows light wear but remains fully functional.
When you are ready to reset the battlefield you can pay {5} and sacrifice Oblivion Stone to destroy each nonland permanent without a fate counter on it, then remove all fate counters from all permanents. The result is a calculated sweep that can clear opposing boards while preserving your own engines if they carry counters. The lore hints at a relic that seals the door to oblivion, a patient tool of artificers who balance risk and reward in long games.
