Path to Clean Exile
Path to Exile is a compact removal spell that solves problems cleanly. Cast it for one white mana to exile a threat outright and force a concession from the opponent in the form of a basic land. This print from Commander Outlaws of Thunder Junction keeps the original templating players expect and slots into control shells, tax decks, or any list that values efficient answers and tempo shifts.
From a lore angle the card reads like frontier justice. The creature is removed from play rather than dying so graveyard recursion lines are interrupted. Use it when you need a definitive resolution rather than incremental damage. Players will trade a creature for a land drop and you will have a clear board state to leverage into the late game.
