Shutting The Heavens
Elias, Severe Drought is a 5 Faith Prophet Being from the Wrath Age, with 5 Strength and 4 Hope, and a powerful Resurrect ability: when exiled, he deals 2 damage to all beings. This global effect makes Elias a prime tool for disrupting wide boards, setting up mass removal, and turning the tide against aggressive or midrange strategies.
This card's verse is Revelation 11:6:
"These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: [...]"
Strategic Use In Gameplay
Elias, Severe Drought thrives in decks that can manipulate exile mechanics or prepare for synchronized board clearing. His Resurrect ability punishes both players equally, so the key is to control the board state so the damage benefits you more than your opponent. When timed right, Elias can reset the field or finish off wounded threats across the board.
Synergies and Plays:
Sweeping Punishment: His 2 damage to all beings clears small units and weakens larger threats for easy follow-up removal or trades.
Exile Optimization: Works perfectly with self-exile enablers, letting you trigger his effect on demand for maximized value.
Prophet Decks: As a Prophet, Elias benefits from tribal synergies, making him an excellent addition to any deck focused on prophecy chains or recurring effects.
