Confuse
BR
Instant
Target attacking creature deals damage equal to it's power to another target creature.
[some quote here please]

Suddenly, the creatures gets the battle confused and beats up another attacker. Or can I just slap 1 on the CC to make it an effect that can be used on non-attackers as well?

current wording:

Confuse
RW
Instant
Play Confuse only during combat before the combat damage step.
Remove target attacking creature from combat. It deals damage equal to its power to another target attacking creature.

But then it deals its normal combat damage. Or you could technically play this after normal combat damage has been dealt. Is it supposed to work that way?

it actually doesn't suppose to deal it's combat damage, it should be played before combat damage step...

hmm.... seems like I left off an important point of it Wink

What's the best way to word this?

You could probably use a variation of the Oracle text for creatures that redirect their own combat damage, like Soltari Guerrilas, so...

The next time target creature would deal combat damage this turn, it deals that damage to target creature instead.

Is it possible to word it that the attacking creature deals damage to another attacker before the damage step? Say, that if the 1st creature kills the 2nd, you receive no damage, or something like that?

I'm just looking for a really short version (/me looks at Matt).

edit: added the clause that prevents this card from being played at the 'end of combat' step.

Play ~this~ only during combat, before combat damage is assigned. Target attacking creature deals no combat damage this turn. That creature deals damage equal to its power to target creature. (It may deal this damage to itself.)

OR, if you don't want it to be able to damage itself.

Play ~this~ only during combat, before combat damage is assigned. Target attacking creature deals no combat damage this turn. That creature deals damage equal to its power to another target creature.

Something like :

Play Confuse only during combat before the combat damage step.
Remove target attacking creature from combat. It deals damage equal to its power to another target attacking creature.

The more you add clauses to this card, the more it feels white to me.

This may be better at RW, instead of RB. It just feels more in-flavor that way...

Tap target creature.  That creature deals damage equal to its power to another target creature.

that way, it can use creatures that just came out.

I like Gerrymander's suggestion best. I was going to suggest looking up [card]Delerium[/card]'s wording, but that looks like he beat me to it.

You can't play this without at least two attackers, right?

Even so, I'm cencerned about huge swings in limited from this thing. It's like removal+fog.

Thus, an uncommon. It's right up there with Hammer, Crystal Shard and whatnot. It's very strong, but not too strong I think. Spells like this have a tendancy of being able to be spotted a mile away. Sorta like Soul Nova is right now.
