It's a green card that can
kill a creature without needing it to attack or
block. And it can deal with regeneration
and indestructibility. Get your playset
now while they're still being printed, because
you know it's never getting reprinted.

This is noteworthy because it's a green removal
spell. The controller does get a bunch of 1/1s
out of the deal, but if you're playing with big
green fatties, they generally have trample, and
won't be able to do too much. This requires a
pretty specialized deck to take full advantage
of; don't just throw it into some random green
or (especially) white deck and expect it to help
out much.
In limited, this is more useful, because you can
use it to take out a big threat, and it gets
around regeneration.

Green creature removal? What the heck? Yeah,
they get a bunch of little guys to stall with,
but you're playing green. Just stomp over the
top of them. You don't see cards like this very
often, so take advantage of it while you can.

Mercy Killing
I don’t like this card much in
constructed. There are ways to dispose of your
opponent’s creatures without giving them
additional creatures. In limited, your options
aren’t as open and this card’s value increases.
You can also kill one of you own creatures,
preferably with damage already on the stack, in
order to get some extra troops.

Constructed: Not a good card for constructed.
Need other cards to combo off with. Still has
some play ablitity.
Casual: Fun card for green and whites removable.
Get more elves out there for Wellwisher.
Limited: Draft it okay. Sealed deck it
could be used with Blowfly Infestation. Get a
-1/-1 counter on one of their big fatty and then
just use Mercy Killing and watch the elves
fall.... It happen to me.
Overall are good card with alot of playablity.
Should see some serious fun play.
