Run Out of Town

In Commander, Run Out of Town occupies the lower tier of single-target interaction — the "anything" clause makes it genuinely universal, which matters when you need to answer a Blightsteel Colossus or a hexproof enchantment your other removal can't touch, but five mana competes with wraths and haymakers on the same turn. Pauper is where it sees its most serious play, since the common-card pool has fewer unconditional answers and the library placement punishes the low-density decks that dominate that format. In Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer the rate is simply too slow; those formats have cheaper, cleaner interaction at every point on the curve. Oathbreaker shares Commander's logic — useful as a catch-all but not a first-pick.
