Pretty good idea for a card. They should redo this with a lower casting cost.

This card costs too much in both its activation and CMC...This is a good idea for a card though...

target creature loses -2/-0? isn't that a double negative, so it actually gains +2/+0?

I saw this and thought "some early cards have such random abilities," but I bet this was designed as protection from Hypnotic Specters that all colors would have access to. It's still overcosted, but that's the only reason I can think of for a card designer in 1993 to want to make this - other than "that's a random effect - let's put it on a card."

It's too bad you have to tap it; a repeatable version would actually be pretty cool.
