Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under enchanted player's control, that player loses 1 life and you gain 1 life.

That's a very interesting sideboard card. It does kill the Copy Cat Combo in Standard, but I think its true place might be in Modern against certain weenie decks (Elves, Merfolks, Death and Taxes) and Lingering Souls. Are those decks enough of a problem to sideboard against them, that's the question.
Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
Tombstone Stairwell was my thought also! It's my go to jank card I think of way to often.
Stairwell is really fun in Ghave. You can make opponents' tokens absolutely worthless with Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite or Kismet, then use Blood Artist, Massacre Wurm, Suture Priest, and the like to bleed them, or Grave Pact and friends to get rid of their real creatures. It's not infinite (even if it does use the aforementioned Stax cards) and therefore "fair" by most definitions.

Also, yes, clearly hoses the Copycat combo in Standard.
Worse. Tombstone Stairwell. Also, Hunted Troll.

Make a deck around Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim for field control and Kambal, Consul of Allocation for more bleeding fun.
