Cooool...
Just thinkin' of possibilities, either a ub bad grasp of darkness (still good) or 'target attacker deals no damage, target attacker dies). I like it bettwer than pyroclasm and grasp put together!

If you combo this with twisted image the combo is turned into:
UUB

Destroy target creature with toughness 3 or less.

Destroy target creature with power 3 or less.

Draw a card.

such a useful mid-combat card. works well in so many U/B decks

Actually, I believe.... using your idea you could play this

Target creature gets -3/-0 until end of turn goes on the stack.
Respond to it with

Twisted Image

Swap the power to toughness

Target creature gets -0/-3 until end of turn

and kill a creature with power 6 or less, oh and draw a card... unless I'm mistaken??

@Eluem 'Fraid not. The entire instant goes on the stack as one package, with no time between the -3/-0 and the -0/-3. You can only Twisted Image before or after both parts. That said, if you're playing U/B, you shouldn't have to look too far for a way to kill a creature with power 6+.

The flavour text is a statement of the Second Law of Thermodynamics!!

@Ellum
I am pretty sure both parts happen at the same time.

@BobTheBuilder
If you can take out two things with that, then your coming out ahead. Otherwise it would be going a long way for a "murder", end result being trading 1 card for 1 card.

But this card is an okay combat trick. Could bring about a 2 for 1 with the help of combat, or take something out and soften another attackers blow.
