Does black have any sort of support removal?

One Suppression Bonds or Claustrophobia and my black deck starts to run into trouble. As far as I can tell my only option is Anguished Unmaking, but that's a rare that I don't have.

    No doesn't really have anything, the biggest pain is hixus prison warden. Fortunately all of these type of supports only need one match to destroy so usually you can deal with these quickly, Alternatively you can splash red with Sarkhan or run some kind of board destruction (sword of the amethyst).

    It is probably meant this way since black does have problems to deal with enchantments in MTG as well.

    It's a good idea but I'm running Demonic Pact (which makes me take 30 damage if it's removed from the board) so blasting away randomly is going to ruin me more often that it helps me.

    Ob Nixilis's ultimate does a pretty good job of killing opposing supports. Takes a few turns for it to really kick in though.

    This was my first SOI rare pull, and until I had it, I never realized how rare support removal in black AND white really are. This has got to be one of the most under-appreciated rares in the set.

    Anguished Unmaking is a cornerstone of any black control. It's ability to 2 for 1 is unparalleled, however you do have to play life gain.
