Not sure on exact wording for the granted ability.

I like that you can use this as a removal spell if they only have one creature. This might be a good place for Reform - I wanted to make a cool green enchantment to put it on and this fits the bill.

Kieran Symington · 2014-04-15 15:47:16

Oh and I think the sacrifice is an ability that would go on the enchantment not the creature.

Kieran Symington · 2014-04-15 15:49:28

Like that?

Simon O'Keeffe · 2014-04-15 16:10:07

That seems right.

Kieran Symington · 2014-04-16 08:14:52

We were going to give this card reform. Certainly helps put the game away if they have one blocker but might be too good/too many words for a common.

Thomas Baker · 2014-05-24 16:17:22

This is a B card, isn't it?

Thomas Baker · 2014-05-26 11:36:45

I don't think so. I basically borrowed the ability from Emperor Crocodile.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2014-05-26 11:53:00

Should it be "Enchant creature you control" then?

Thomas Baker · 2014-05-26 21:29:43

But then it loses the cool play of enchanting your opponents only creature! Is conditional green removal too far out of the colour pie?

Simon O'Keeffe · 2014-05-26 21:35:22

There is a good chance this is stone terrible. The fact it can be used as a removal spell is good, but it's super expensive for a worse Oakenform that could end up killing your own creature!

Kieran Symington · 2014-05-26 21:37:22

Been playing with it a bit. It's actually kind of good in URG where you put it on your flier and/or kill something with it. But I think it's pretty much definitely a color pie violation if it can be put on opponent's creatures.

Thomas Baker · 2014-05-27 13:55:58

And, obviously not very good if you can't.

Thomas Baker · 2014-05-27 13:56:14

I'm pretty sure that this just isn't very good at all. Uber conditional removal, and not enough bang for your buck to justify the possible 2 4 1 for your opponent.

Paul Hodgson · 2014-05-27 15:02:59

Maybe : Enchanted creature gets +2/+2 and trample. When ~ ETB enchanted creature fights another target creature. - could set up some spicy situations?

Paul Hodgson · 2014-05-27 15:04:11

Paul's version catapults this to very good, especially with trample, but 3G Sorcery speed removal conditional on having a creature probably isn't going to break the universe.

Thomas Baker · 2014-05-28 07:34:26

Maybe trample is pushing it too far? Isn't there a similar sorcery for 3G that puts a +1/+1 counter on your dude?

Paul Hodgson · 2014-05-28 08:22:15

Nobody ever wanted to play this. It is just super bad.

Kieran Symington · 2014-06-08 10:17:53

Rob played this in UGr aggro.

Thomas Baker · 2014-06-29 22:16:59

I was amazed.
