Alluring Scent
The "Lure" effect, sold green at sorcery speed instead of stapled to a creature's keyword: every blocker that can be assigned to the target attacker must be, draining a defending player's whole board into a single doomed block. What stops it from being repeatable is the timing. Where the enchantment Lure rides on a creature and threatens combat turn after turn, this is a one-shot you cast before damage, committing your tempo to a single combat step and asking the rest of your board to capitalize on the opening. Forced confrontation is the cleanest thing green does in combat: this does not kill, does not gain advantage on the stack, just rewrites who fights whom this turn. Pointed at a trample beater, it gangs every legal blocker onto one body and lets the excess damage spill through to the player; pointed at any single attacker, it strips the defending side of the choice to spread blocks across your other creatures, leaving the rest of your board to swing through unblocked. The card's origin in a beginner-focused product is legible in the clean, unconditional wording: no hexproof clause to read around, no cost beyond the mana. As one of the older green expressions of a forced-block effect, its strategic axis (turning a blocking decision into a non-decision) has stayed identical across every reprint of the idea since.
