Old Ability, New Keyword
For this contest, I would like to see an ability that has appeared in multiple cards given a keyword, such as "This creature attacks each turn if able" or "This creature can't block." The ability can't already have a keyword.
Example: http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/wastewracker?list=user
Cards will be scored on how evocative the keyword is, how balanced and interesting the card is, and formatting. Rares and mythics will not necessarily be more likely to win.
Deadline: April 8. You have a brisk week.
Please, no more than 3 submissions from one smith.

Honorable mention goes to Second Wind, by Fallen.
Placing cards gave the abilities evocative, "authentic" keywords that fit well with the card. There were no or few formatting or spelling errors, and the art was clean and appropriate.
Thank you to all of the contestants.
