If someone ever tries to steal it, you can pay {0} and have it kill itself! Style points for that move...

Hey everyone,
What is the ruling when I turn this enchantment into a "creature that is still an enchantment" and then someone deals leathal dmg to said creature/enchantment. For example, if i make it a 3/3 and block a 5/5 attacking creature-- does the enchantment get destroyed and it goes into my graveyard or do I get to keep the enchanment in play (but not as a 3/3 anymore)?

Mirror entity doesn't cost , and it can weaken your other creatures if you don't have the mana to sink into it.
Edit: @Doomstrike Seeing as the enchantment is now the creature, the card itself is put into the graveyard as a state-based effect. You can tell, because it says "It becomes a creature" as opposed to "Put a creature into play." This card is the creature, the creature dies, the card it's on goes to the graveyard. Pretty straightforward.

I suppose it could be fun with an Ooze Garden, but it's not a card I'd choose to play.

Sorry, Doomstrike, but Nooboflore is right. However, you can pay again and turn it into a 5/5 or larger before damage is dealt. Similarly, if it was a creature because Opalescence was in play, you could pay to temporarily make it larger (or smaller, ScissorsLizard) because such effects are applied in the order in which they occur.

No one has mentioned a combo with wrath of god, although you'd need some form of haste + rolling stones (or some animate wall effect) to make it work at all on future turns. Not a great card.

@ThatStunna: No haste needed, it's a permanent that's been in play since your previous turn, turning it into a creature does NOT give it summoning sickness otherwise man-lands wouldn't work at all.
That being said, comboing this with Rolling Stones and a Wrath effect is an interesting move for White. Perhaps not the most potent of combos they could pull off, but that's never stopped me before.
