What the heck is going on in this?

Why? I guess it may have some use elsewhere, but not in M11. I suppose it could be used in conjunction with those color specific cards, like Doom Blade and Combust, or effects like Fear. If so that's really specific. Why is it red? Someone correct me somewhere.

@JWMidnight: Color-changing effects are indeed not too common overall, but turning a permanent into the same color as the spell is something each color has always been able to do. Take a look at the laces for instance.
And that "bellicosity"-effect is a typical red thing.
Additionally, i think when someone goes REAG-mode, he certainly will become red.
Just take the artwork as a reference :D

I don't care for the card, but I LOVE the idea. Of course the creature becomes red. That just makes sense! Like using Rise from the Grave to make the creature a black zombie. It's a no-brainer situation.

Cheap, wonky removal, best off in limited, most likely.
The 'make your dude attack into unfavorable blockers' bit is nice, but I'm most intrigued by the color-changing aspect of this card and whether it can be abused.

that should say: "target creature gains haste and attacks if able". then maybe someone would play it

Not quite what I'd expect from a red card but... I'm loving it! It has so many uses.
If your opponent is about to cast something like "Target white creature gains +1/+1" then cast that during the combat phase and cancel out the effects..
Using a split deck and want to cast Doom Blade on a black creature? No problem, just pay the 1(R) beforehand then blast it out of the sky.
Got a nasty creature on the field that either has an effect you want to get rid of, is blocking your attackers or you simply want gone? That's fine, just cast this during your opponents turn, forcing it to attack and then wipe it out with lots of your blocking creatures.
I mean sure a Lightning Bolt would be more effective early game, but, I really like the versatility of this.

This card's art is messed up. And the card itself is pretty useless.
With the weight of both you can't consider allowing it "tweak effect" card options like flash/buyback or cantrip. Yet you'll never need both.

It could also untap the creature and give it haste... oh but that might make it playable and we can't have that, un unh!

This is certainly helpful. Could potentially save any high priority target like Baneslayer Angel (as much as I hate her) from having Combust used on her.

One of the best removal spells in Magic, period. Completely busted alongside Chimney Imp's card advantage engine and an instant 4-of in Vintage. 5/5
Looking to build a Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind deck, and had an idea to combine this with Aetherplasm to bring him out early. Definitely situational, but it's a cheap way to force attack.

The problem with the card, if it wasn't obviously, is that it's so situational, even in limited. If you use it to force one of their creatures to attack in order to block it with one of yours and kill it, you're getting no card advantage, and you're relying on them not playing any combat tricks or anything.
What's a little funny is that all they had to do was increase the mana by one, or *possibly* 2, and give it a cantrip. Then it suddenly becomes very good. Best case it'd be a two for one; worst case it's cycling in red. But alas, it was not to be.
Pretty good level indicator though. At the M11 release event I had a player cast this on a non-summoning-sick Steel Overseer. Good times.
I used to have a history professor like that, but he was Incited all the time :>
Seriously, it's just a cute little flavor-trick for red. And a way to make your opponent lose their Darksteel Colossus to an All is Dust. That would be funny.

On a more serious note, this is really situation but could have been made a good card by adding the cantrip effect to it. Then you have a crappy situational effect that draws you a card.

Seeing as most new players will be buying core set, this is a great card to introduce them to one of Red's most defining characteristics... RAGE.

I can't get enough of that guy at the right. I would play this, somehow, just so I can see it on a regular basis.
