Preventing all damage dealt to the creature is almost indestructible. And the downside is only 2 lost attack? Ramp decks would take this just to make their dorks into Super walls.

I probably shouldn't have put damage prevention on a common slot

Changed the power reduction to keep it common.

Compare to Ghostly Possession: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=220052

Both nullify the damage they deal and take. Possession makes it a flying blocker. This one prevents all damage.

I worry about it costing 2 coloured mana. That can be rough to achieve. If you're putting this on your own creature it's worse than possession but on an opponents this is better. I'm not sure what to do with it.

Removed the damage prevention to creature. Modified the effect. Essentially the same effect.

Now it's like a green pacifism that leaves them with a blocker. Hey, it's a common. It's supposed to be weak.
