I had the idea for making trample matter outside of combat too. I’m not sure how to balance the mana cost of this, since there isn’t really a similar existing effect to compare it to besides Ram Through. It could certainly do some good things if you really build for it, but I don’t think it can really get broken. Thoughts?

    I honestly think you could make this cost 1 or 2 mana, and I don’t think it’s overpowered. It seems somewhat reliant on a fight spell to work but I think that serves green well here.

    I think for three mana you could also make it draw you a card whenever you play any creature with trample.

    Worth noting this also gives them trample over battles and Planeswalkers, but only for noncombat damage

    That’s a cool and clean design. I agree with Mike that this could cost less mana, being a conditional cantrip and needed heavy deckbuilding requirements to do anything more than that. 1 or 2 mana seem reasonable as is. Maybe it could be at 2 or 3 mana if it just drew the card with no conditions asked.
