how is ossification in the game

[Ashardalon]

usually land destruction is frowned apon, not banned, but nobody is going to like you if you play around with it
kindof a natural selection making a ban not needed
but here is a card demanding land destruction to counter it
thats weird game design
be a d to counter the d
very weird

Pretty sure ossification can simply be destroyed via enchantment removal as it's an aura

[Kolarahidumgarabashtelarimdugarn]

Just as mentioned above, it can be removed with any enchantment removal. Versatile ones usually cost 2 mana, specific ones cost only 1 (e.g., "Break the Spell"). It can be also destroyed with land removal, which is a small drawback.

It's a great creature/planeswalker removal. White exile enchantments usually cost 3 mana, but let you exile any nonland permanent, meaning they're better against all other kind of permanents. Technically, if you're playing a non-creature-based deck (e.g., artifact deck, enchantment deck, mill deck, or combo deck), you don't even need to remove Ossification, because it's useless anyway.

Is Ossification strong? Yes. Is it too strong? It depends on the meta. It's worthless against some decks.

It's strong but not unbeatable and will certainly annoy people if you build decks around it.

This guy was running Ossification / Denial Enchantments against a creature deck of mine and I still outlasted him. Most people would have just conceded to save time myself included but I felt like teaching this one a lesson.

[Winter Wolf]

I should note that ossification has been in Standard for a long time. And before that there were other land auras that hit creatures. It is an archetype of removal just as the instant speed doom blade spells.

if it is ruining the game for you, run more enchant removal or more creatures.

[Ashardalon]

its not too powerful, thats not the problem
but it is tempting me to look into making a land destruction deck
wich is not something you want to motivate people to do in your card game

Are they spamming never didn't have it after slapping it down
