    EDHREC Rank #31,291
    white mana blue mana black mana red mana green mana : This creature gets +2/+2 and gains fear until end of turn. Target creature gets -2/-2 until end of turn. Activate only during your turn. (A creature with fear can't be blocked except by artifact creatures and/or black creatures.)

    Necromancers who discovered the new sources of mana were quick to dream up new nightmares with them.

    Fleshformer can target itself with its ability. The result is that Fleshformer gains fear, since the +2/+2 and -2/-2 parts of the effect will balance each other out. (Fleshformer's power and toughness will each momentarily go up by 2, in case anything cares about that.)

    Fleshformer's ability has only one target: the creature. If that creature becomes an illegal target by the time Fleshformer's ability would resolve, the entire ability doesn't resolve. Fleshformer won't get +2/+2 and won't gain fear.
