Bitter Feud 4R
Rare
Enchantment
As Bitter Feud enters the battlefield, choose two players.
If a source controlled by one of the chosen players would deal damage to the other chosen player or a permanent that player controls, that source deals double that damage to that player or permanent instead.
Haha, cute. I hope there's more design like this. Asymmetrical effects that affect at least one opponent are pretty clever.
Not sure it'd fit into any of my decks, though. Putting it on yourself is risky, and if you pick two opponents who can't be coerced into attacking each other it's a bit of a waste.

For some reason this card evokes the mental image in my head of this meme:
Super cute design though, and it might put in some work. It incentivizes those two plays to start swinging into eachother in most cases. It also makes me thing I could start building a mono red or red white "Enchantments that destabilize the boardstate to all hell" deck. With Furnace effects like this, and things like Bedlam you can create some chaotic combat. (Hell, you could have Gisela be general and it'd fit thematically.)

Check out the thread for my cube if you have the time, and tell me how terrible it is.
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)
How many people actually expect this to get two people to go for one another, instead of both of them being like "You want us to die? YOU FIRST!" ?

My Commander decks:
Chandra, Torch of Defiance - Oops! All Chandras. Prime Speaker Zegana - Draw for Power. Pir & Toothy - Counterpalooza. Arcades, the Strategist - Another Brick in the Wall. Zacama, Primal Calamity - Calamity of Double Mana. Edgar Markov - Vampires Don't Die. Child of Alara - Dreamcrusher.

I think it'll create a situation where both feel super-vulnerable to the other and turn their attentions to whomever they're paired with. It could be good for buying time when one guy jumps ahead.

I guess it works if they already have a little grudge or when one guy is about to win with combo so you just put this on the player with the most powerful creatures so he can finish the combo guy in one swing. Those kinds of states.
At which point you might as well use a Curse of Bloodletting. Really, this is never going to be a fun card except in some corner cases. And there's probably a whole cycle of this jank...

For it to be better than Curse of Bloodletting you have got to cast it to "help out" a more downtrodden player who is already gunning for the player in the lead. Probably still not great.
The card is funny but it most likelly will make the 2 players to ally themselfs to take you down
Or, if Alice casts this targetting Bob and Claire, we might see this:
Bob: Hey Claire, let's gang up on Alice to get rid of this thing.
Claire (smiling): OK
Bob: Declare attackers. Everything, at Alice
Alice: OK, ouch, I'm on ten.
Claire: Declare attackers. Everything, at Bob.
Bob: Uh-oh
Claire: Is that a knife in your back, or are you just happy to see me?

Exactly. I makes it so those two players can't really commit to attacking anyone but their new best enemy, lest they invite their counterpart to slaughter them.

Are you kidding me? This is why I play EDH. This is a really interesting card, and even though it's seemingly worsen than the Curse, it's much more interesting. Maybe you're a super competitive EDH player, but most of us like this fun multiplayer party kind of card.
