Hmmm. Well, green certainly gets to eat enchantments and artifacts. And you can use green creatures to kill off other creatures; though this is a little more direct than they usually get to do it. (Also REALLY efficient to kill off an opponents 2 drop to power up your 3-drop)

The only real colour bleed would be eating low-cost planeswalkers. Which I guess I can accept in the name of keeping the wordiness down.

But this could be a very very good card. Flexible too - early as a good 3-drop, late to flash in and chump while eating some important aura.

I think the triple {g} usually keeps a card like this in check. Without valid targets it's rather lackluster though.

by Alex:

Green even gets to destroy planeswalkers occasionally: Bramblecrush, Rootgrapple. But there's only ever been one planeswalker with CMC <= 2, and he's rubbish.

This is at least a bend for just outright destroying the creature rather than fighting it, though.

I also think flash as well as a 2-mana discount on Acidic Slime is a bit much, but I guess this is pushed for constructed. (It'd probably be rare, in fact.)
