Drag to the Bottom
Symmetrical black wraths have always paid for their power with a fixed number: minus-two here, minus-three there, and a hope that the board tops out under the ceiling. This one makes the ceiling a variable you build toward. Domain turns your own manabase into the dial, so the sweep scales from a modest minus-two in a mono-black shell up to a minus-six in a five-color deck that has assembled every basic land type. And that coupling cuts against intuition: the decks best equipped to survive their own wrath (greedy multicolor midrange with the mana to prove it) are exactly the decks that get the biggest sweep, while a focused two-color deck pays the same four mana for a considerably smaller blast. The effect hits every creature, yours included, so it reads as a true board reset rather than a one-sided answer, and the minus-X/minus-X shape means it clears indestructible bodies and tokens alike where a damage-based sweeper would stall. It is a sorcery, so there is no ambushing an alpha strike with it; the reset happens on your own turn, at your own tempo, after you have decided the board is worth wiping. What makes it a genuine deckbuilding piece rather than a stock removal spell is that the number in the text is written by choices you made twenty turns earlier, in the lands you chose to run.
