Slaughter the Strong
Oracle Text
Each player chooses any number of creatures they control with total power 4 or less, then sacrifices all other creatures they control.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Slaughter the Strong is a sharply efficient white sweeper that fits best in control and token-based midrange shells, where you can break the symmetry and leave your side of the board largely intact. Because each player keeps only creatures with total power 4 or less, it punishes tall threats and wide boards full of high-power attackers, while rewarding decks that spread power across many small bodies. In Commander, it pairs especially well with vigilance creatures, utility dorks, and token makers like Raise the Alarm-style effects, since a swarm of 1/1s can survive while bigger monsters disappear. It also plays nicely with anthem effects: if your team is buffed beyond the threshold, time the spell carefully or use it after combat to preserve value. Flavorfully, it feels like a disciplined battlefield purge, not a reckless catastrophe—more a test of who can field the right force than who can simply flood the field.
