A deck that focuses on controlling the board and disrupting the opponent's hand size would benefit from including Isildur's Fateful Strike, especially if it already includes legendary creatures or planeswalkers. While this card offers a powerful removal effect combined with hand disruption, other options like Hero's Downfall or Vraska's Contempt may provide more versatile removal at a similar cost, making Isildur's Fateful Strike a situational choice that could see play in specific metagames or strategies.
