Celebrate the Mountain-king

A four-mana temporary answer plus loot—and often a 1/1—can be a 1-2 copy control tool, but sorcery speed and enchantment vulnerability limit it.

Could be wrong if White control may not want four-mana interaction, or cheap enchantment answers could make the exile too unreliable.

Azorius Control can test it as flexible permanent interaction, but four mana and reversibility compare poorly with Pioneer’s efficient removal.

Could be wrong if It could rise if durable noncreature permanents become especially central and existing answers prove too narrow.

White control has little room for a four-mana sorcery-speed, reversible answer; the loot/token rider is not enough to overcome Modern’s rate.

Could be wrong if A slower white enchantment shell or unusually target-rich metagame could create a narrow sideboard role.

Even UWx Control is unlikely to spend four mana on reversible sorcery-speed interaction in Legacy; its small selection and token bonus are negligible there.

Could be wrong if Ancient Tomb-style acceleration or a target-heavy prison matchup could support isolated testing.

Against three opponents it can exile up to three nonlands while filtering into a token. Compared with Beast Within, it trades permanence and speed for major scaling.

Could be wrong if A single enchantment removal spell can restore every exiled permanent, making it less dependable than permanent removal.

Broad removal plus rummaging and a frequent 1/1 is strong uncommon value; it is not a bomb because removing it restores the exiled threat.

Could be wrong if Unknown set speed and enchantment-removal density could make the temporary exile substantially worse than expected.
