Incentive on this card seems a bit demanding. A 3/2 for {2}{b}{b} doesn't seem good. You really need to push treasures for Incentive to work- which you do seem to be doing. Since Incentive is optional, I think you may want to give a better body to CMC ratio. Also -X/-X is red-flagged for common (although I'm not the biggest fan of forcing commons to be simple).

While X is red-flagged for common, giving "a number of -1/-1 counters equal to" is not. Something to think about. Obv, if you chose to not use -1/-1 counters in this set, then what I said was meaningless...

Yeah, I originally had this as a 3 drop.
