Pileup Playbook
Spectacular Pileup is a surgical boardwipe for formats that reward timing and sequencing. Cast for {3}{W}{W}, it strips indestructible from every creature and Vehicle, then destroys them, turning otherwise safe blockers and boarded-up Engines into vulnerable targets. In practical play this resolves the clutter that static effects create and punishes opponents who rely on impervious defenses. As a late game reset it leaves little behind to rebuild instantly.
The card also carries a safety valve. Spectacular Pileup has Cycling 2 which lets you trade the sorcery for a card when you need gas instead of a clear. From the Aetherdrift story this reads like a sanctioned crash; a precise tool for controllers and midrange pilots who plan their turns around one decisive spell. Add it to decks that want an answer to indestructible threats and Vehicles and use the cycle when the board state does not favor a full commitment.
