Another entry for Challenge # 126. I imagine there are rules reasons why this simpler wording for Concerted Effort-style effects doesn't work. But "keyword abilities" is at least a well-defined term in the rules.
I myself have wished it could be worded that way. I think it's more of a lack of faith in players than rules issues that prevents it, but I could be wrong.
I guess the problem would be, if they later keyword an ability which wasn't previously keyworded, they can either change the functionality of this card, or avoid errata-ing old cards with the ability to have the keyword? Maybe that would be ok with lifelink, but might be bad if they keyworded a negative ability.
I'm sad this doesn't have "You have all keyword abilities..." :)
Heh. That'd be "Form of Akroma" ;)
Here I was going for something to feel like you were turning yourself and all your creatures into a big sliver hive.
