Seriously, when you turn someone's high-powered creature into an ape, they don't like it. Brilliant and quick card.

@DarthParallax: You have heard about Polymorph, haven't you? This is basically it, just not as abusable, and it generally fits in with blue's flavour of transforming creatures and other things, as seen with Snakeform, Turn to Frog and Enchanted Evening.

Go figure, a one-mana removal with no strings attached, with only a negligible drawback, is BLUE of all colours. Gotta love Planar Chaos.
That being said, shouldn't this card have been called Kongify?

How. How did this card get printed. How did something this awesome slip past R&D?
First off, targeted creature destruction in Blue. 'nuff said on that already.
Second, the potential combo/defensive uses are numerous and potentially hilarious. Your best blocker just got Pacifism'd? Re-awaken that rage with a heapin' helpin' of gorilla go juice!
Third, the flavor is great. Blue has always had some of the more random cards, and this is definitely random. In fact, I feel like the art should have a wizard looking on from afar holding up one of those Wile E. Coyote-style signs that says "WAT?!"

I would like to go on record as saying that by comparison to this, Dismember is a paragon of faithful right-wing conservative traditionalist strict construction interpretation of the Color Pie. A black kill spell is a black kill spell. Black is evil and does things on the cheap for a life payment. Nothing to see here. Whereas this a fast-to-play kill spell that makes a powerful green creature. In blue. W...T...F...
I understand more Planar Chaos cards that I should, because my mind is twisted like that. But this card has absolutely 0 justification if you have heard of the color pie. If 'White Memory Lapse' is playing around in the crust of the color pie, this is taking a fork, stabbing it deep into the pie, and forking large chunks of it onto a plate, where you can fork the pie into your mouth and mash it up and eat it with the fork you forked the color pie with.
