See Challenge # 114. Decided to go escoteric and used Segovia, world of the dreaded Segovian Leviathan and The Hippodrome.
For those, that don't know, Segovia is a tiny plane. That 3/3 Islandwalker is huge in Segovia. In Dominaria, it's about the size of a sea bass. I wasn't really sure what mechanics Segovia would have, so I just took a stab at a flavorful instant.
I know I've seen a lot of 'you can't do that' remarks for 'creatures with toughness less than zero can't die'. But most of the time, someone is trying to use it as a creature ability. I'm just using it until end of turn, so it's a bit more like "prevent all damage that would be dealt to this creature." Truth is, the cost is a bit too high. Not sure how to make it gold and keep the ability. I chose -6/-6 specifically so that a Leviathan would still be a 3/3 post Punify... guess I could have increased the cost by one and made it a cantrip if I was being serious.
