Dragon bound ...). So you have a one in 1-4 chance usually and then the evil MPA guy will blow up uncoiling even if it costs him a couple of pool. So while it is a good silver bullet it is a bit too random for my taste as a sole counter vs Anthelios.

Try Uncoiling + Fourth Cycle. It resolves most situations.

Totally. That is a completely carpet bombing of any event based strategy in 2 cards. Fourth Cycle demolishes the Imbued and any deck that uses 2+ events. Uncoiling gets the single event decks. I'd think these would show up more, especially if events are tearing up a metagame environment.

Uncoiling sees a lot of play in my experience.

I think Fourth Cycle should see more play, but there really aren't that many mainstream Gehenna event-based decks in the current metagame. I mean, sure Anthelios and Unmasking see a LOT of play, but most tables won't have both. Dragonbound is very rarely played and the event that do see regular play (other than Unmasking and Anthelios) aren't Gehenna.
