Wrath of the Skies
Wrath of the Skies offers a scalable white solution from Modern Horizons 3. With a cost of X and {W}{W}, you begin by gaining X energy counters. You may then pay any amount of {W}. When you do, destroy each artifact, creature, and enchantment with mana value less than or equal to the amount of {W} paid this way. The result is a controlled, value oriented wipe that scales with the game state. This is the kind of interaction you expect from a measured white control moment, where tempo is controlled and answers are precise.
In practice, Wrath of the Skies rewards careful planning and energy counter generation. Use X to tailor the sweep to what you can pay in white, clearing small to midrange threats while preserving higher value permanents for later. The card fits well into patient, resource aware decks that lean on scalable removal rather than immediate hard resets, a hallmark of Modern Horizons 3 design and its emphasis on strategic play outside the usual rush of combat.
