It also bugs me that the card doesn’t have much of a downside. The supposed downside of life loss doesn’t matter when you just reset the counter by casting another copy of it, which you will probably do when you’re drawing 6+ cards for 3 life. And with the protection effect you’re probably coming out ahead on life totals in the short term
