I despise this card. 6 mana to reset the game. This is worse than cyclonic rift imo. Rift puts everything back in your hand that maybe you can rebuild. But exile everything is dumb. Why did they give you the option to choose all modes?

Some years ago in DBFZ, I beat someone in bracket and they said "I'm not shaking your hand, you're not good" I said: "Oh I know. Probably makes it sting more huh?" They said: "Money match me right now" I said: "Shake my hand first" They walked away and I never saw them again.
