What is it about Embercleave that makes it good against Cycling? Im dumb.

One of the main ways for Cycling to fight back against decks that are faster than it is by making a bunch of 1/1's with either Valiant Rescuer or Improbable Alliance. The deck can make quite a lot of these which it then uses to chump block, but if Embercleave is still allowing the opponent to push through all that damage anyways then the Cycling deck just gets run over before it can assemble a way to win the game. It's not really Embercleave specifically as much as it is just Trample in general. Mono-green aggro has been a bit problematic for me for similar reasons, though mono-green is somewhat slower which makes that more manageable.
