This looks like a poster boy for the kind of card that would get red flagged for card advantage; that is, a cantrip removal.

Amass enough copies of this in limited and you are getting ahead of your opponent quite fast and very consistently.

Hmm. It’s intended to be a late-curve (4 CMC) tempo card, but you have a point.

Perhaps “ETB, tap two target creatures”? Mild card advantage on the turn it’s played, but standard issue after that.

Interesting edit - I like it! It's even better if the target you wanna enchant is already tapped.

Booyah.

And now that I think about what two copies of this in back to back turns can do in a tempo deck, I wonder if it wants a higher CMC.

Super interesting design. It might be too much of a blowout in multiples at common, but I certainly would want to find out as well.

Adjusted again to tap only one extra creature. Waaaaay less oppressive.
