If you don't pay the cumulative upkeep, you'll sacrifice Wave of Terror before your draw step begins. It won't destroy any creatures that turn.
- WotCApr 1, 2008
This destroys creatures with mana value exactly equal to the appropriate number, not equal to or less than that number.
- WotCJun 1, 2005
Will not generally kill zero cost creatures because the age counters go on before the ability triggers. If would be possible if something like Power Conduit were removing counters.
