This is absurd, isn't it?

The 'For Will' support looks very powerful too, but this is ludicrous. Taking damage includes being attacked... so if you attack Greg when he has this in play (something, I believe, you'll need to do if you want to win the game!), he will suddenly get a considerable discount on all the broken goodies in his hand... yer Rakdos, Patron of Chaoses, yer Dragonhawks, yer Connecting the Dotses, yer Villainous Wealths... and that discount could well be 100%! Free cards! Free cards that generate free cards every turn!

I can think of at least one way around this issue... killing Greg with a couple of Tempt with Bunnies in a single turn... but I'll wager that ways to circumvent the problem are only available to advanced players like me with huge card collections. Oh and I haven't even started to think about how much more Greg can abuse this support by damaging himself...

    My initial idea was double strike/toxic, but that requires green and either red or white, preferably both. Sadly there isn’t a PW with these three colors.

    I’m assuming that “for will” is tied to the blue/white node and “for Rowan” is tied to the red/black node. But won’t be certain until the event is running.
