Forced Fight [cost]
Instant
Target creature fights another target creature.
So, how much should Forced Fight cost?

Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.

If Blood Fued is going by anything, 7 to 8cc, which puts it into unplayable range. Let's face it, even if it says "fight another creature" this reads "destroy two target creatures", making it off-color for the colors that use fight as a keyword.
Not everything can be costed fairly AND be playable.
I don't know about you guys, but I feel like blood feud is horribly overcosted. The effect is just a very conditional 241. I feel like an actual fair cost is 5 mana for the Instant speed version

for Blood Feud at instant speed - it's still six mana. I could see it go down by at rare, but comparing it with other cards that are able to remove two creatures directly in any situation five mana is quite cheap - at that cost you get Twinstrike or Jagged Lightning.

Planar Chaos was not a mistake neither was it random. You might want to look at it again.

Thoughts?
Finally a good white villain quote: "So, do I ever re-evaluate my life choices? Never, because I know what I'm doing is a righteous cause."
