Clone Legion
Cloning has almost always been priced as a one-for-one trade: pay a few mana, pick the best body on the table, get a copy of it. This is the same idea scaled to absurdity, copying an entire board in a single cast. The targeting is the wrinkle: because you point it at any player, the natural line is to aim it at the opponent who just spent the game assembling a wide, threatening battlefield and turn their work into your own army. It rewards patience in the most literal way, asking you to do nothing while a rival builds the position you intend to steal, then doubling that position at once. The cost reflects exactly that math: nine mana is the toll for an effect with no ceiling, since the more creatures exist when it resolves, the more it produces. Unlike a board wipe, it leaves the original creatures intact, so the swing is purely additive rather than subtractive, which is both its appeal and its honesty: you do not erase a threat, you match it and then some. It is a top-end haymaker built for the kind of grinding, multi-turn game where boards get large and the player who copies the whole thing last wins.
