Accidentally hit enter on something I decided to change, will make a card later
I get "Pay more, has flash" - but "Pay more, has flash, but is tapped - so I can't use it anyway?"
Is this just meant as "Hold mana back to threaten counterspell, then have this to sink it when they end turn"?
I agree that quick is a bi weird. IIRC it's supposed to be a quickdraw mechanic that is always coming with an ETB/"on cast" effect, so more like altenate cost kicker or evoke with build-in flash and ETBT a side effect.
So, when you use quick, you actually want to play the card as an instant with incidental creature.
If this e. g. didn't ETBT it would be outright removal of anattacking creature no matter the size (barring +1/+1 counters etc.).
I'm not certain this is a common anyway - maybe in some sets, but this one features -1/-1 counters, right? I could see a -N/-0 effect here.
0/1 frog and loses all abilities to 0 power and loses all abilities. I didn't think of the removal set-up with the -1/-1 counters in the set. Thanks for pointing that out SecretInfiltrator
