Repel the Vile
White has always paid a tax for unconditional removal, and the shape of that tax is what this card negotiates. Rather than exile any creature at any size, it draws a line at power 4 or greater: the fat threats white struggles to trade with in combat, the finishers that outclass its blockers, the reanimated monsters and ramp payoffs. That restriction lets the exile clause run clean, no destroy, no regeneration window, no death trigger, at instant speed. The second mode is what keeps it from rotting dead in a matchup that never fields big bodies, folding an enchantment answer into the same card. Modal removal that toggles between a creature and a noncreature answer is a well-worn white pattern, but pairing a power threshold with the enchantment mode gives this one a specific job: one flexible card covering two of white's traditional problem categories without demanding you guess which threat shows up. The four-mana price is what breadth and permanence together are worth; cheaper white removal tends to buy its efficiency by targeting narrowly or leaving the threat on the battlefield. What you get is a spell that rarely wants for a legal target in a serious game, and that answers the exact threats a fair white deck least wants to see resolve.
