Strategy
Plague of Death is one of the strongest board clears for ever printed. It wipes the entire board like 
Twisting Nether, and the addition of Silence also prevents Deathrattle effects from going off, creating a truly clean board. It's a strong control card for this reason, even if it's very expensive. Its high cost can be used to activate cards like 
Sunreaver Warmage and King Phaoris.
Lore
- The stakes for our heroes have never been higher. Rafaam is bringing about the end of days, unleashing a series of devastating plagues, like a Plague of Death. Most plagues just wimp out and settle for disease or pestilence or whatever, but this one is just straight-up death. Silenced death. The deathiest death.[1]
Trivia
- Plague of Death's visual effect was created by VFX artist Hadidjah Chamberlin in order to establish a unifying visual style for the rest of the set's "plague" spells.[2]
