Citywide Bust

A wrath with a dividing line drawn at toughness, and that line is the whole strategic conversation. Where the standard sweepers in white's history clear the board indiscriminately, this one reads a creature's stamina before deciding whether to kill it: anything sitting at toughness 3 or less walks away. That is a remarkable amount of asymmetry to bolt onto a three-mana board wipe, because aggressive decks tend to fill their curves with lean, low-toughness bodies while the things this sweeper is actually built to answer (fatties, ramp payoffs, fortress-toughness blockers, oversized midrange threats) are exactly the creatures that survive an ordinary attacker's reach. The cost of that selectivity is that you have to build around it. A board you want kept and a board you want gone rarely sort themselves cleanly along a toughness-4 fault line, so the deck holding this card wants its own threats wide and small while it punishes an opponent for going tall. It is the inverse of the small-creature sweepers that scale by power; here the survivors are the runts, and the casualties are everything the other side spent real mana to deploy. Treated as an unconditional wrath it disappoints; treated as a one-sided answer to a top-heavy board, it does work nothing in white's symmetrical-sweeper tradition can match.
