Wrath effect

Wrath effect is common Magic slang for any spell that sufficiently wipes the board of most creatures. The name is coined after the card Wrath of God, which until recently was one of the few Magic cards that has been printed in every core set since Alpha, but was not included in Magic 2010. Wrath effects are dependent on the current board condition, but are extremely powerful no matter the circumstance. A form of card advantage, Wrath of God is still one of the most popular board-wipers in Magic.
