All players live in fear of the Cataclysm! event, as it is one of the most popular events in the game. To defend against it, every player should have the event Calm (400/1st), the cleric Delsenora (10/1st-chase), or other event negating cards.
Another good defense is the event Deflection (54/AR), which turns this event against the opponent of your choice. If a player's last realm is discarded because of this event, all the champions in his pool must be discarded. The player that is about to lose his champions can play a cord such as Menzoberranzan (2/3rd) or Caer Allison (3/FR) to save his pool. Cataclysm! can also be played during the course of a round of combat on the realm being attacked. If not negated, the attacker gains a spoils of victory because the realm he was attacking was or discarded during the course of combat.
