RR will never be like F/ice..it can remove permanently remove a target and can gives you a new card...
stifle, grip/grudge,submerges, dismembers, snares, roughs...100% agree theyre better removals vs RR from things we hate...

but then again non of these can save our own creature (except goose)/clock vs uncounterable spells (except of submerging ur own crit when decayed)..
i brought RR to the discussion coz i was looking for a new tool vs hated matchups...jund/bug/DECAY..

RR is what i think, at 1 more cost to cast (we're usually at 1cc)...
is our 5th stifle (hide land from opposing wastes, upkeep ice oppossing land), our 4th submerge, a counterspell vs AD, Verdict, our 7th burn that can deal with huge walls and provides great tricks from EoT to combat phases...
And yet it costs two. I love Fire//Ice...but I'd never play it because it costs two. Two mana for a preboard spell is asking a lot of this deck, since we typically are trying to resolve the maximum number of spells to attain threshold and out-tempo our opponent. Playing crap like RR and hoping you'll have the open mana to protect you goyf or delver is just never going to happen.

And as far as board wipes are concerned? Play around them or, as is case with terminus, counter it (or stifle the miracle trigger). But, hey, test it out. Get back to us when you have definitive results exonerating the card. Until then, I see it as too expensive and not powerful enough.
