Hi, I've been seeing this card in some sideboards as a single. Sometimes even a 2-of.

Out of curiosity, what decks is Cataclysmic Gearhulk boarded in against? I'd assume, against go-wide strategies?

Yeah, Gearhulk is mostly there for creature matchups. However, it also comes in against Urza decks (or any other deck that puts a bunch of the same card type into play)

I'm a huge fan of the card. 4/5 Vigilance is super relevant, and it can often be a recurring wrath by bouncing it with Cryptic Command, JtMS or little Tef

thanks for the explanation. That's just the confirmation I needed. /ordered from scg.

too bad it did not clear lands like the original Cataclysm, but the ability to clear go wide strategies is still useful. Gonna board it in against the Humans players in my area. :)
