Premature Burial

Black has always paid for its premium removal with a color clause, the long line of spells that cannot touch black creatures, but this one stacks a temporal restriction on top: the target has to have entered since your last turn ended. That second condition narrows the card to a punish for tempo plays and freshly cast threats, useless against any creature that has been sitting on the battlefield through a full rotation of turns. It cannot break up a board that has already stabilized against you, only the thing your opponent just committed. Being a sorcery flips the sequencing from what the effect wants: you cannot answer a creature the moment it resolves, so you take your opponent's turn, untap, and only then are you allowed to cast the removal on the threat they developed last turn. That gap between the threat arriving and the answer becoming legal is exactly the cost the design extracts. As color-pie discipline it is a careful downgrade, efficient enough at two mana to want but too narrow in its window to drift into the catch-all answer black removal sometimes becomes. Removal that cares not just about color but about when a creature arrived is unusual enough that it never settled into the staple rotation; most black decks would rather pay a little more for a spell that does not ask the target to be recent.
