How strong can Creature Removal get?

[dandan]

In defence of all that is Darkness, I refuse to let White have the best creature kill

Gravelure
B
Enchantment - Aura
Enchant creature
The controller of enchanted creature sacrifices it at the beginning of your upkeep

Note that this is a slower but IMHO improved version of


Lingering Death is not regarded as one of Black's better creature kill spells but a 1cc version is far better.

However if you are going for better swords still is.  This can be disenchanted. 
A better version would be:

Gravelure
B
Enchantment - Aura
Enchant creature
At the beginning of your upkeep sacrifice Gravelure.
When Gravelure is put into a graveyard from play sacrifice the creature it was enchanting.

Yes I prefer that version, I think the wording needs tweaking as you can't sacrifice something you don't own but the intent is still clear.

In any case StP doesn't kill anything, they simply go farming. Proper creature kill sends the creature to the graveyard where it is available for further use. [sarcasm]And doesn't it suck to give an opponent 11 life? [/sarcasm]
