Death and Taxes goes wide with Aether Vial-enabled creatures, Recruiter of the Guard digging up more bodies, and a steady stream of threats from White Orchid Phantom onward, so Wrath of the Skies is a strong sweeper to reset the board once they've overextended. Triumph of Saint Katherine's cheap miracle cost gives us a lifelinking 5/5 to stabilize against their aggressive creature curve. Celestial Purge can exile a problematic black permanent like Overlord of the Balemurk or Emperor of Bones if needed, though it whiffs on their white cards. Daze and Stifle are weaker here since Death and Taxes plays a grindy, resilient creature game rather than relying heavily on getting blown out by a tempo tax.
