How pleasingly flexible. And let's you do "Get down off yer cloud and outta yer shadow and fight me!". And um, cancel first strike, and trample and this really does a number on anything other than big numbers, doesn't it?

Deathtouch and lifelink still work, but pretty much everything else doesn't, yep.

One wrinkle: I believe that in the situation where I attack with five 1/1s and a 6/6, and your 1/1 blocks my 6/6, then I cast this to make my big guy unblocked... my big guy is actually still blocked. (509.1h "A creature remains blocked even if all the creatures blocking it are removed from combat.") You'd need horrible wording like Balduvian Warlord's middle sentence to prevent that :/

That might be intentional, after all, this is white. Instead of casting this to get your attacker through, cast it on defence to royally wreck their plans.
