It also nullifies your opponent's graveyard - pretty backbreaking for strategies like 'Dredge' that rely on the 'yard - and allows you to grab your opponent's best threat from the void and play it free of charge (Okay, at the cost of its own life, but it's a lowly two-drop, so who cares?) Paired with targeted discard cards like the popular Thoughtseize, Dauthi Voidwalker has the potential to be super scary
The net result is that threats like Hazoret, Kalitas, [Card]Glorybringer[/Card], and just three-drops with high toughness in general, are surprisingly difficult to bring down and can easily take over the game against an opponent who showed too much respect for [Card]Bomat Courier[/Card]
Youre usually in for the long haul after this hits the battlefield, but youll be the one playing at an advantage because your deck will be designed to function under a Rule of Law and only your opponents nonbasic lands enter the battlefield tapped
The reason is that energy creatures tend to have enter-the-battlefield effects (ETBs) that make energy, so it's beneficial to blink them
