Sever the Bloodline
Sever the Bloodline is a practical removal spell from Innistrad Remastered that eliminates a creature and any copies tied to it. At {3}{B} you exile target creature and all other creatures with the same name as that creature, which makes it effective against token swarms, clone strategies, and decks that rely on multiples of a single threat. The card reads cleanly and does what you expect; it removes the problem rather than shifting it around the battlefield.
The flashback clause gives a second window of interaction in long games. Flashback {5}{B}{B} lets you cast it from your graveyard for additional reach when the game goes late and opponents stabilize. Seasoned players will find this useful in sideboard plans and control shells that need a repeatable exile answer without relying on removal that only kills once.
