There are some folks you just don't want to get into a fight with. Captain America. Chuck Norris. Hulk Hogan... you get the idea. Well add Phyrexian Obliterator to that list!

Now back in Standard, Phyrexian Obliterator has always been a nightmare for decks that need to rely on damage or attacking to remove things, but your opponents still get to pick their battles; They can choose not to attack, or not to deal damage and sit back instead.

So, it's time to pick the fight for them!

Phyrexian Obliterator reenters into a Standard format that is already jam packed full of awesome Black cards, making filling out a great deck a breeze, and the Green splash is exactly what we need to force our opponents into action.

Bushwhack is a fun Lay of the Land/Prey Upon split card that takes the fight right to your opponent, forcing them to tussle with your Phyrexian Obliterator, but isn't blank if they don't have any good creatures to fight with. Perhaps even more exciting for the Green splash is the new Glissa Sunslayer, which is about as good of a midrange creature as you could ask for.

Who says you shouldn't be picking fights?
