White doesn't realy get to do this, unprovoked, any more. Though it is a good use of the army of tokens.

Also, there's a card already named Dogpile. And it really is a dogpile...

This is Gaze of Justice, isn't it? Which is indeed out of white's colour pie now (and pretty much was out of white's pie even back then; Time Spiral deliberately broke a lot of rules).

Was this inspired by this comment on Maro's blog?

Well, "is indeed out of white's colour pie" is not necessarily true.

A color bend is still within a color's pie, a break is not. And this might be a bend? Seriously, white's rules have changed so much recently (and flip-flopped in some cases) that I'm not certain.

At the very least it was not a break during Time Spiral-block which is something designers choose to ignore.

­Angelic Purge is still in Standard as I type this. White also can get convoke. This kind of effect would make the creature tapping mandatory, but is nothing like the "mistake" cards Path to Exile etc.
