­{b} + {b} is far too cheap for this effect.

On top of that, if it's an Aura attached to something and you use the ability to transform it back into a creature, you won't have to sacrifice the creature, since it only becomes unattached at the next SBA check, a time when the Licid won't have the ability that would trigger.

For an especially egregious abuse, have this in Licid form and attempt to animate two creatures in response to each other. Transforming (unlike flipping) is a symmetric operation, so you'll get to keep both creatures, and it'll still be in Licid form ready to repeat the process without having to pay another {b} or sacrifice one of the creatures you brought back.

­Animate Dead becomes Contaminated Bond

Hmm. The original Licids were tapped if you tried to 'un-licid' them in the same turn. Perhaps the original ability should at least be "{b}, {t}:". I'd also argue that if Licids were done nowadays, that the 'un-liciding' would probably also include tap, to stop players from over-analyzing board states. But, that one doesn't have precedence...

added {t} to cost

The rest of my Licids include {t}. I just forgot it on this one. I don't want to make the reverse ability a {t} ability. The original Licids didn't even have that as a separate ability; they were just "You may pay {x} to end this effect." That couldn't even be Stifled, but these can.
