­Fireball + Pearlescent Shield

XL5 and Vigilance, double-block, and some toughness. Twobrid white.

So the shield is kind of all over the place, though clearly "I'm good at defending". And fireball is of course the classic staple of the genre, albeit this interpretation of it ends up too complex. So there's something both cards share.

I wonder what a twobrid fireball would look like? Rocket Launcher tells me it's legal to do some damage in pure colourless.

So... well, is there any reason to not try the simplest possible conversion? ... Hmm, the original also has summoning sickness. I always forget that. So the direct conversion would be strictly better. Maybe force this to be at least partly red? I think that's for the best. Maybe make it an enchantment instead of an artifact? Yeah, I think that's an OK thing to do.
