    Because it wasn't designed in from the start targetted support destruction is a pain, it is a HUGE pain, but it also has practical problems...

    Lich Mastery next to a Treasure, tiny board, huge fingers, small misclick, loss...
    HUGE PUBLIC OUTCRY!


    I think the best that is _reasonable_ is stuff like:
    Destroy an enchantment if there is none destroy a support

    (and many other options)
    And we are starting to see things like that.

    I would like to see some of the really really boring very old support destructions be updated to this kind of model.

    Can we get a spell that reads "destroy your opponent's lich's mastery, otherwise destroy their storm the vault, otherwise destroy a random support"

    I'd be fine with more effects like Vraska's "destroy the support with the highest shield count" (well, if Vraska wasn't bugged). I think this is mostly a usability concern.

    What's really annoying is you can't target...but the spells that destroy a support dont target them in an order either so what is the right tinykitty way then @Kinesia?

    Support have become a massive thing in this game and the destruction aspect to protect yourself doesnt exist where you have any influence over it like you can with destroy target creature spells.

    Had the support that turns into spire of orazca on the board and the opponent casted a few more support while I was prioritising spells to destroy, but it took SIX destroy support spells bwfore it targeted it AND the first one the opponent casted !!....

    Considering there's a confirmation after making your selection for destroying creatures, I would be surprised if targeted support destruction were implemented that a confirmation of your choice wasn't also included.

    You can pick / target a creature to destroy.

    You can pick cards in your library to put into your hand.. .ie search for azcanta.

    So why can't we have a list of support to kill?

    @Brigby have the devs looked at this at all? Supports are becoming more and more important in the shape of a match and not being able to target the ones that are hurting you doesnt make sense.
    Also Vraska is not fixed and still targets treasures.
