Spectral Grasp
Pacifism for politics. Where the classic two-mana white Aura simply switches a creature off entirely, this one removes a creature from the conversation only as it concerns you: it can't swing at your face or your planeswalkers, and it can't stop your own attackers. The creature is free to keep attacking everyone else at the table. That asymmetry is the entire design point. In a one-on-one game it reads like a strictly worse Pacifism, because there is only one player to be protected from and the Aura's restraint becomes a full lockout anyway. But the card was never built for a duel. It is a deterrence tool for a table of opponents: you neutralize the biggest threat as it points at you while leaving it pointed at the rest of the board, turning a creature into someone else's problem and a reason for them to deal with it for you. The "block creatures you control" clause is the underrated half, quietly clearing a lane for your own offense while the enchanted creature is still nominally a defender for its controller. It is a piece of multiplayer politics rendered as a permanent: cheap, narrow, and pointed in exactly one direction.
