reduced cost from 4 to 3

Oh, it can only fight fossils? And it's dual-colour? Will anyone actually run this card?

by Sorrow:

Well, it's a fossil instant, so there wouldn't be non fossil creatures around when the spell is cast.

by Vitenka:

But it needs you to be playing fossil creatures (which is under your control) and the opponent to also be (which is not). So it's a sideboard card for "My opponent is running more/better fossil creatures than me, but I'm running some." and is hard to cast on top of that.

Added that the creature that gets -2/-0 now also loses all abilities. Alternatively, I could drop that addition and reduce the cost to just GU.

by SecretInfiltrator:

So if a fossil instant already can only interact with fossil creatures, why the redundant wording?
