In a way, better than pacifism. Pacifism still allows "Tap to blah blah blah" effects on creatures while this doesn't.

During prerelease my opponent told me that it only tapped the creature every other turn. He was wrong of course but I believed him. Always get a judge! >.<

Functional effect of this card (in most cases):

Enchanted creature cannot attack or block, unless its controller has another way of untapping it.
Enchanted creature cannot activate abilities with Tap in their cost, except during its controller's upkeep.
During enchanted creature's controller's upkeep step, trigger any "becomes tapped" triggers.
Enchanted creature gets a free shot at abilities with the untap symbol in their cost once per turn.

It's hilarious to use Lust for War on a creature that has this on it too, but your opponent will use removal on their own creature if you do that. Better to throw Lust for War on some small early creature and this on their fatty.

All in all, a very nice blue removal option for the format. Sadly, it's going to see about zero constructed play because Frost Titan exists.

An amazing card, completely shuts down enemy attackers, which is my main worry in my RedBlueBlack control deck...but what exactly are the differences between this and Curse of Chains? I understand that this only taps if the creature is untapped, but does this lead to other fun stack tricks like activating abilities before the trigger resolves that Curse of Chains doesn't (or vica verca)?

See R&D, Blue deserves Pacifism much more than white! Maybe some splash into black and I will be happy.
Red => enchanted creature can't block (anti-defender)
Blue => enchanted creature can't attack (anti-power-but-no-activated-abilities)

This is cool for putting on your own creatures with {Q} abilities. You can get them to tap every turn without risking them in combat.

Think outside the box guys.
