Delete deals X damage to each nonartifact creature and each player.
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Delete is a classic red sweep-and-burn: for {X}{R}{R} it deals X damage to each nonartifact creature and each player, so it functions as both mass removal and a potential finisher. Its tempo/control niche is clear — a midrange or control deck can use Delete as a board reset that doubles as reach, while X here buys a scalable answer to go-wide strategies or close out races. Build the deck to exploit what Delete spares: include artifact creatures (Darksteel Myr, Steel Overseer, or a suite of modular Myr tokens) so you maintain a post-wipe board presence, and load up on red X-ramp (Pyretic Ritual, Seething Song, Desperate Ritual) and mana rocks to make big X turns realistic. If you want explosiveness, pair Delete with damage doublers like Furnace of Rath or Gratuitous Violence to make a sweep instantly lethal to opponents. Avoid pure aggro shells — this card rewards decks that can afford a big X or leverage surviving artifacts afterward.
