Fury Charm
The third mode is the reason this card exists, and the other two are scaffolding holding it upright. Removing two time counters is suspend support in its rawest form: aimed at a permanent, it pushes a vanishing clock two ticks closer to its end; aimed at a suspended card, it strips two turns off the wait and lands the spell earlier. That mode only earns a slot in an era where time counters were live across enough cards to matter, which is exactly why the design pairs the accelerant with two evergreen reds: artifact destruction and a one-shot trample pump. The three-mode charm template demands a card that is never a dead draw, so the Naturalize-style artifact kill and the combat trick sit underneath as the reliable floor while the counter-manipulation mode does the situational heavy lifting. The genuinely unusual choice is letting a charm reach into suspend at all. Most charms answer creatures, artifacts, and life totals; very few instants of any stripe ever touched the time-counter subsystem, and fewer still let you do it at a discount on a flexible card. It survives as a record of a stretch when red was being asked to bend time as casually as it bends damage, with a counter-based answer slotted right alongside the burn and the beats.
