Description

Isildur's Fateful Strike (LTR 542) is a Legendary Instant from The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth. It destroys a target creature and then forces that creature’s controller to exile cards from their hand if they have more than four, equal to the difference. The card can only be cast if you control a legendary creature or legendary planeswalker, introducing a deckbuilding and timing constraint.
