Fatal Grudge
Casting Cost: {B} {r}

  Artist: Cristi Balanescu

Strengths:

• Selective Removal: This card allows you to effective remove a permanent of your choice from Each opponent, assuming they have one that matches the type of the one you sacrified.
• Card Draw: Drawing a card as part of the effect mitigates the loss from the initial sacrifice.

Weaknesses:

• Self-Sacrifice: You must sacrifice a nonland permanent as an additional casting cost, which may not always be advantageous.
• Opponent's Choice: The opponent Gets to Choose which permanent to sacrifice, making the removal less targeted.

Potential Deck Placement:

• Would fit well in a rakdos (black-ed) sacrifice strategy where you're already looking to gain value from sacrifying your own permanents.
• Could be a tool in a commander deck that manipulates the board and benefits from both sacrifying own permanents and removing opponent's permanents.

Flavor and Art:

• The Flavor Text and Art Give the Impression Of A Dark, VeneGul Spell, Aligning Well with the Sacrifice Theme.

Overall impression:

• Fatal Grudge is a situational card that can be highly effective in the right deck. The Requirement to Sacrifice A Permanent Can Be A Drawback, but in a deck build to exploit this, it could offer Bothelive Removal and Card Advantage.
