I didnt think For ten mana, this card exiles half of an opponents library, gets at least three +1/+1 counters (going by average mana values), making it a 10/10 most of the time when it enters with a Ward - Annihilator 2 level of built-in protection, and, again, likely Annihilator 3 if you exile at least a permanent card with a mana value of three from half your opponents deck (again, this is being conservative)
