About Grip of Desolation

Grip of Desolation, Instant, designed by Lius Lasahido first released in Oct, 2015 in the set Battle for Zendikar. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.70.

This card would be beneficial in a control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's board state by removing both a creature and a land simultaneously. While Grip of Desolation offers versatile removal, there are potentially better options like Vraska's Contempt or Hero's Downfall, which provide more immediate and flexible removal without the color restrictions. Whether Grip of Desolation should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, but its unique ability to target both a creature and a land could make it a situational but powerful choice in the right circumstances.
