I'd love if it wasn't an active skill. Think : reducing attack so creature with nice abilities aren't affected by shields?

I didn't mean so. I mean, I imagined that it would have a counter and this would not be an active skill.

For the cost i almost think this card is UP and the cost should be reduced. I mean lightning kills most creatures right then and there and costs 1 upgraded. and this form of cc is extremely slow.

shrieker 8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1=36 damage and 8 turns before it finally gets 0 attack. granted shrieker isnt a typical card, the time it takes to finally be decently effective is a nerf of its own and the cost should be reduced

That would be reasonable. How about a -2 | 0 or rather a creature that can cast this spell (and, of course, like the poison counter, it stacks)?

-2|0 is much better and would probably be 4 and 3 cost but i would keep it at -1|0 for 2 and 1 cost. If a creature had that power then it would probably have to be 2-3 quanta for -1|0 because it is reusable

Maybe you could make it relative to the creature's attack when this spell is played. More attack equals -2 or such, less equals -1.

Thank you for the ideas, really.
As I've got many different ideas, I think I will add a poll to see which one would be the best choice.

Anybody who wants to vote?
With Entrench | Burrow gone, this is the second card I'd like to submit to the Crucible. In case nobody thought of this idea before me, of course.

I've been waiting for a while, and after several days, I viewed the results. I chose the option which got the most votes (it got 1 vote out of the total 1), so it wasn't such a hard decision.
The target now gets -2 | 0 after each successful attack.
