Especially since it’s a lesson, you only get this card out of your sideboard when it’s worthwhile to trade resources into a 3/2. The same holds true for anything you’d ideally use this card against. While that’s a strong creature that can definitely threaten you, trading Nissa, Who Shakes the World into a 3/2 creature is a massive win. Reduce to Memory trades an opponent’s best nonland permanent for a 3/2 red and white Spirit. This card has certainly changed the way Magic is played in eternal formats. When WotC prints a truly unmatched card it’s best to pay attention. Ending is a staple that’ll see play for the rest of time baring a better version coming in a later set, but I can’t imagine we ever see that. One of the primary staples of Modern Horizons 2, Prismatic Ending changed the landscape of Modern, Legacy, Vintage, and EDH as one of the most efficient and limitless answers ever printed.

This is one of the more limiting ones, but Portable Hole does its job better than most others in matchups where you want to target cheap permanents, especially noncreature permanents. A continued theme of cheaper white artifacts and enchantments answering troublesome permanents that are limited by the desired card’s mana value. Portable Hole is a premier removal spell in both Standard and Pioneer, especially to answer aggressive cards and hate pieces like Deafening Silence. These cards create a balancing act that ends the moment they leave play. These effects are incredibly powerful and can often turn the game, but they carry the risk that your opponent can answer them and undo your hard work answering their best permanent. But they all follow the same pattern of effectiveness and risk in the end.
Ixalan’s Binding prevents your opponent from casting more copies of the card exiled, and Quarantine Field can act as a multi-permanent answer. They each have their own unique twists, like Conclave Tribunal having convoke or Grasp of Fate being a Commander card that exiles a card for each opponent you’re facing.
This is a very wide net I’m casting here, but all these cards are enchantments that enter the battlefield and exile target nonland permanent for as long as they’re still on the battlefield. It works especially well against cards like Bloodsoaked Champion that continue to recur if you can’t exile them. Exclusively hitting cards with a mana value of 1, this card works best as a sideboard option against linear aggro decks that rely on their cheap spells to get ahead. Isolate is one of the most restrictive exile cards ever printed. The benefit of a 4/4 flyer while you force your opponent to remove this card and lose their best permanent can apply a lot of pressure in how they interact with Archon. While far from as effective as cards that just immediately exile a target permanent, Archon manages to have that same level of efficiency only when it dies. Archon of JusticeĪrchon of Justice is an odd one in the context of this list. While there are certainly some 2-drops that this card misses, it’s a small price to pay for such a powerful effect. Not to mention that most things you want to permanently remove that are nonlands likely fall into the category of 3+ mana. While this isn’t as unconditional as other options on this list, this card remains powerful despite the restriction thanks to the other two chapters on this saga. Elspeth Conquers DeathĪ Standard staple for its entire lifetime in the format, Elspeth Conquers Death can exile any target permanent an opponent controls with mana value 3 or greater. These two types of exiling target permanent are white’s main styles of removal. White sometimes exiles cards unconditionally while other times they’re only exiled until the card doing the exiling leaves the battlefield. While the color has some effects that destroy, like Valorous Stance, it tends to exile the cards it interacts with. White’s primary form of removal is exile.
When the dust settles these cards answer any problem you run into, so let’s get into them! Best White Exile Cards Even the most powerful cards we see today tend to avoid affecting a player’s ability to actually play the game. While not always unconditional I’m also going to count cards that exile target a nonland permanent since Magic has long moved away from allowing most spells from interacting with lands. Though some versions have extra costs or restrictions, if it can exile a target permanent without being a Flicker or blink effect then I’m counting it. While the phrase “ exile target permanent” shows up in Magic in a lot of ways, I’m focusing on forms of removal. Today I’ll be looking at the best effects that point their destruction at a target and eliminate it from the game. Karn Liberated | Illustration by Jason Chan
