Dampening Pulse

A one-sided team debuff aimed squarely across the table: the -1/-0 shaves a point of power off every creature an opponent commits, and none off your own. This is pure damage mitigation, and the choice to dock power rather than toughness declares exactly what it hunts: wide, small-bodied aggression, where a single point per attacker compounds into real swings of life total. Against a board of one-power creatures it behaves like a fog you never have to recast; against a lone fat threat it barely registers, and that narrowness is the whole proposition. It penalizes quantity, not quality. This is the passive, board-wide stat shift as a design category: a permanent leash rather than a spell you spend each turn, which is what separates it from the pile of one-shot fogs and combat tricks that patch the same problem for a single attack step. Once it resolves it asks for no further investment, trading immediate tempo for a no-maintenance tax on every attacker the opponent draws afterward. The asymmetry is total by construction: because the modifier only touches creatures your opponents control, your own board keeps its full power while theirs bleeds a point per body, and the enchantment shell means removing it costs the opponent a card of its own. Enormously lopsided when the opposing plan is to flood with small creatures, close to blank when the plan is one large one.
