Applied Geometry

The Fractal mechanic bolts a copy effect to a fixed +1/+1 counter payload, and this one hands you the counters at their most generous rate: six at once, dropped onto a duplicate of anything you already control that isn't an Aura. The 0/0 base is the constraint doing the accounting. A Fractal enters with nothing, so its survival depends entirely on those six counters, which means the copy always lands as a 6/6 version of whatever you pointed at, plus every ability and type the original carried. Copy a mana rock and you get a 6/6 that taps for mana; copy an enchantment creature and the token keeps the enchantment half while gaining a body; copy a planeswalker permanent and you clone the loyalty package with a Fractal creature stapled on top. Where blink and copy effects usually reset a permanent to its printed stats, the counter layer here means the result is often bigger than what you copied, not a mirror of it. The green-blue split is honest about the two halves of the design: blue supplies the duplication, green supplies the counter mass, and the sorcery speed keeps it from becoming a combat trick that flashes in a second blocker. It is a build-around that scales with the quality of your best noncreature or creature permanent rather than a standalone threat, rewarding a board that already has something worth photocopying.
