Rite of Ruin, Sorcery, designed by Clint Cearley first released in May, 2012 in the set Avacyn Restored.
A deck that focuses on controlling the board and disrupting the opponent's strategy would benefit from using Rite of Ruin, as it can effectively dismantle their resources. However, there are more efficient cards like Damnation or Wrath of God that provide similar board wipe effects without requiring specific types of permanents to sacrifice, making them better options in most cases. Rite of Ruin could see play in specific strategies that heavily rely on permanent types, but overall, it may not be the most competitive choice in most decks.

First you choose the order for the card types. Then each player in turn order (starting with the active player) chooses one permanent they control of the first card type. Then those permanents are sacrificed at the same time. Then each player in turn order chooses two permanents they control of the second card type. Then those permanents are sacrificed at the same time. Finally, each player in turn order chooses three permanents of the third card type, then those permanents are sacrificed at the same time.

If any abilities trigger while Rite of Ruin is resolving, those abilities will wait until Rite of Ruin finishes resolving before going on the stack. Starting with the active player, each player puts their abilities on the stack in any order.
