Between the spoiled Chthonian in The Thousand Young and all the upcoming "reveal the top card of your deck" effects, Sinkhole's looking pretty cool.

With the combo to put Chthonians on top of your deck, this will be the only 2-cost targeted destruction effect in the game. And it's a Disaster so there is always that combo with Watcher of Signs to ramp up your main domain faster to actually afford a Chthonian....

Really nice catch, this might actually be worth building some stuff around, then.

It will depend I guess on how many Chthonians we get and how "worthy" they are.  But a 2-cost targeted character destruction is pretty nice.  Shub box should be out fairly soon...

 

But, you also need a repeatable reveal effect and maybe some patience to have the right card on top too, either that or a way to put it there yourself which can already be done several ways.

Does this remind anyone else of Tremors?
