Tier 3
One of the best off-turn board clears in the game, possibly the best in limited generically? It most circumstances, you will be able to clear off all of your opponents’ relevant threats and leave them with next to nothing, since incidental tokens are so common/powerful. Further, since you know you will want to be playing this, you can maneuver your board to be nothing but worthwhile champions, by trading off your tokens for instance. Stand Alone wishes it was this card, especially since this is strictly better in the situation where you only have a Sea Titan in play. You need to be aware of this card’s existence so you can play around it.
Because this card is so powerful that people need to be aware of its existence, if you play in such a way to apparently set it up, your opponent might play around it, such as not blocking that weird human token attack of yours. However, this does open a potential bluffing avenue. Good…Sage stuff.
There are also ways to guarantee your opponent will have a token in play (Invoke Pact, Necrovirus, etc.) so you can play this, but I view building for that potentiality as largely just overkill. Soul Storm is strong enough on its own.
