Wave Goodbye — Tactical Bounce for Counter Watchers
Wave Goodbye is a compact blue sorcery that rewards careful board development and counter strategies. For four mana including two blue you can return every creature that lacks a +1/+1 counter to its owner's hand. This card reads like a selective reset; it preserves your evolved or bolstered creatures while clearing the board of fragile threats and token swarms. Use it to protect your tempo or to buy time while your counters finish shaping the battlefield.
In Lost Caverns of Ixalan lore this spell reads as the tide deciding which things remain and which ones are swept away. In play it functions as an efficient answer against go wide decks and as a soft board wipe that keeps your invested creatures intact. Players who run proliferate, anthem effects, or sacrifices will find it meshes neatly with a plan that favors long term growth over short bursts.
