it's a minus 1 minus 1. Added flying cause it's a Phoenix
For MDC Challenge 7. Joining Spinal Parasite and Char-Rumbler in the esteemed ranks of creatures with negative printed power or toughness.
A bit harsh that it doesn't work at all outside of EDH. So far Command Tower is the only card like that. Undeniably pleasing that its P and T are equal to the amount of mana you paid to cast it most recently though.
Would it be printable as just "P/T are equal to the amount of mana you paid to cast it"? Which would make it work as a 1/1 flyring in normal formats, and be interesting in the presnece of things that make creatures cost more?
I was thinking about that, but I didn't know how to template it.
I suppose the harshness is actually serving a good purpose, in that blue and white can have Flying Men and Suntail Hawk, but red definitely shouldn't do.
Goblin ballloooooooooooooooon brigade! Ah heh.
