The functional difference is very minor and not worth the additional text and awkward phrasing.<br /><br />"Enchanted creature can't attack or block as long as its controller controls another creature."<br /><br />I like that it's white removal that "turns off" when your opponent has just one creature on the board. Part of the theme that white removal has (or is supposed to have, anyway) loopholes and conditions to make things more "fair."Alex Spaldinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03747145070824848773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-8611105699678385812013-03-26T18:18:43.536-04:002013-03-26T18:18:43.536-04:00The red version of Cower is fantastic as is.
