So it's Phantasmal Image, except it costs twice as much and it doesn't copy abilities?

Yeah it needs work I know. Was originally a sorcery tha created a colourless Illusion copy, aybe I should put it back to that.
"Put a token onto the battlefield that is a copy of target creature except it is a colourless illusion in additon to its other types and it gains 'When this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability, sacrifice it.'"

Ignoring the whole "Hey cool! I have a creature of type colourless!" deliberate misreading...

Is making it colourless and uncommon still a fair tradeoff for an additional {u} in the cost?

It's only {1} cheaper than Clone, and a heck of a lot more fragile. Heck, it's only {1} cheaper than "You control enchanted creature"

(The standard for "You control enchanted creature" is Mind Control these days, FWIW; they concluded Control Magic was a little too undercosted.)

yeah I may have to shuffle this off to Snap for work, just isn't working at the moment - oh well
