About Dust
Dust, Sorcery, designed by Josh Hass first released in July 2017 in the set Hour of Devastation Promos and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.25.
This card could be useful in a deck that focuses on -1/-1 counters and controlling the board through creature removal. Decks that rely on -1/-1 counters to weaken opponents' creatures would benefit from Dust's ability to exile those creatures. However, there are other cards like Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons that provide more value by creating -1/-1 counters on their own, making Dust less essential in those decks. In a meta with many decks that rely on creatures with -1/-1 counters, Dust could see play as a sideboard option for removal, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the specific matchups.
Rules
07/14/2017
If one of Dust’s target creatures loses its -1/-1 counters, leaves the battlefield, or otherwise becomes an illegal target before the spell resolves, it won’t be exiled, but the remaining legal targets will be exiled.
07/14/2017
Once you've started to cast a spell with aftermath from your graveyard, the card is immediately moved to the stack. Opponents can't try to stop the ability by exiling the card with an effect such as that of Crook of Condemnation.
07/14/2017
You can't target the same creature twice with Grind to give it two -1/-1 counters.
04/18/2017
A spell with aftermath cast from a graveyard will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, it’s countered, or it leaves the stack in some other way.
04/18/2017
All split cards have two card faces on a single card, and you put a split card onto the stack with only the half you're casting. The characteristics of the half of the card you didn't cast are ignored while the spell is on the stack. For example, if an effect prevents you from casting green spells, you can cast Destined of Destined // Lead, but not Lead.
04/18/2017
Each split card has two names. If an effect instructs you to choose a card name, you may choose one, but not both.
04/18/2017
Each split card is a single card. For example, if you discard one, you’ve discarded one card, not two. If an effect counts the number of instant and sorcery cards in your graveyard, Destined // Lead counts once, not twice.
04/18/2017
If another effect allows you to cast a split card with aftermath from a graveyard, you may cast either half. If you cast the half that has aftermath, you'll exile the card if it would leave the stack.
04/18/2017
If another effect allows you to cast a split card with aftermath from any zone other than a graveyard, you can’t cast the half with aftermath.
04/18/2017
If you cast the first half of a split card with aftermath during your turn, you'll have priority immediately after it resolves. You can cast the half with aftermath from your graveyard before any player can take any other action if it's legal for you to do so.
04/18/2017
Split cards with aftermath have a new frame treatment—the half you can cast from your hand is oriented the same as other cards you’d cast from your hand, while the half you can cast from your graveyard is a traditional split card half. This frame treatment is for your convenience and has no rules significance.
04/18/2017
While not on the stack, the characteristics of a split card are the combination of its two halves. For example, Destined // Lead is a green and black card, it is both an instant card and a sorcery card, and its mana value is 6. This means that if an effect allows you to cast a card with mana value 2 from your hand, you can't cast Destined. This is a change from the previous rules for split cards.
