Gets rid of Blightsteel Colossus, while his predecessor Darksteel Colossus just laughs incessantly.

Mono Red has had basically no way to deal with Phyrexian Obliterator without artifacts like Tumble Magnet and the no longer legal Brittle Effigy. This gives us a blowout :)

Tailor-made for Phyrexian Obliterator. Mono-Black is looking less appealing now.

@ Superllama12: You're making me wish that's what this card read. If a creature "fought itself", it would deal damage equal to its power to itself twice.

DarthParallax suggested this card with a "0" Flashback cost. Something similar to that would be Rebound.

Darth Parallax also mentioned the 0 Flashback as only being able to target the same creature as the original. Without stating it in any way, I think this suggestion was made at least partially in response to the Innistrad block's Undying mechanic; which, like Persist before it, provides creatures with an incredible level of advantage. This advantage has only been addressed through Rebound, which has not been made nearly as powerfully as Undying or Persist have been (in relation to, say, something like Young Wolf, the Rebound spells are much more expensive; and there simply weren't that many Rebound spells that had very powerful effects to begin with: There was a Red spell that Rebounded with 2 damage each time and a Black spell that induced target player to sacrifice a creature. Other than that, I don't think there were any Rebound spells that were incredibly playable in a Construc... (see all)

A tad expensive, but useful for those big beefy creatures that normal burn spells can't kill.

Because phyrexian obliterator is just absolutely tearing up standard.
