See Challenge # 073, Challenge # 020 and Challenge # 123

Whew. These challenges were not quite incompatible, but close. The mana cost needs to be <=2 and include both R and W (since one ability needs to be out-of-bounds for both colours alone). That leaves only one choice, RW with equip 0.

I didn't want to make a coloured equipment, but I didn't have a choice.

There's not a lot of room in the text box. I abandoned the multi-line format.

As previously for this challenge, it's hard coming up with an unambiguously RW ability that couldn't be {r/w}{r/w}. Especially a concise one. I did my best.

It still may be way too powerful for 2 mana, even at higher rarities. I couldn't really make the effects any smaller, I can only use "+0/+1" once...

Hee! Yay, Challenge 73 was seriously awesome.

I agree this is about the only thing you could do to combine those two!

Thank you! I really like designing to tight specifications, this gives plenty of them :)
