Golden Demise, Sorcery, designed by Deruchenko Alexander first released in May, 2020 in the set Rivals of Ixalan.
Golden Demise is a strong card for control decks in Magic: the Gathering, especially those focusing on black mana. It can be particularly effective against aggressive creature-based strategies, providing a board wipe effect that can swing the game in your favor. While there may be more efficient board wipe options available, Golden Demise's flexibility with the city's blessing mechanic makes it a solid choice for decks looking to control the board and gain incremental advantage over time.

A permanent is any object on the battlefield, including tokens and lands. Spells and emblems aren’t permanents.

Golden Demise affects only creatures that are on the battlefield at the time it resolves. Creatures that enter the battlefield later in the turn won’t get -2/-2. Similarly, if you have the city’s blessing, creatures that come under your opponents’ control later in the turn won’t get -2/-2.

If you control ten permanents but don’t control a permanent or resolving spell with ascend, you don’t get the city’s blessing. For example, if you control ten permanents, lose control of one, then cast Golden Demise, you won’t have the city’s blessing and the spell will affect creatures you control.
