Opposition is a beast rare. Edifice of Authority is a decisive uncommon.
Don't put stuff like that at common!
Doubled activation cost. Remember that this can only be activated as a sorcery
This is actually similar in power to Leonin Bola
"Doubled activation cost." of
. I love the skim-read effect that gives. "Yeah, tap it twice. If you can manage that..."
Anyway - cost doesn't really matter. The effect is a big fat double red-flag for nwo. 1: Tap down multiple things. 2: Repeatably. Very much not a common.
Also very snarky name for the effect :)
Because this only activates at sorcery speed, it’s significantly weakened. This is more similar to War of the Spark’s Chainwhip Cyclops. See also Arena Athlete and Gilded Cerodon. Because of the timing restrictions this effect would rarely be used for other purposes. Additionally, since the only way to activate this is to tap two of your potential attackers, I hardly see it as problematic.
Also; since you can only activate the ability once per turn, this taps at most two creatures in a given turn, so while generating a horde of tokens is incentivized by this, doing so does not make it any more powerful.
1W -> W; Now taps only one target
Increases cost by 1
