So.. you get to declare a subset of blockers before they declare attackers; and if you do, those blockers get a bonus?

Fiddly. I like the idea though.

templating

Fiddly is the problem. This messes with the established flow of the turn. It's easy to miss engage on an opponent's creature and declare attackers too early.

I call that this will cause misplays.

Interestingly this is not supposed to be a triggered ability... Why?

Not triggered ability for the same reasons as Adanto Vanguard: trigger reduction, and there is still plenty of time to answer it before the effect actually becomes relevant.
