- **Mana Cost:** `{2}{W}{W}` (CMC: 4)
- **Type:** Enchantment

## Oracle Text
If an opponent would begin an extra turn, that player skips that turn instead.
Whenever an opponent attacks you with two or more creatures, draws their second card each turn, or casts their second spell each turn, you draw a card.

> *Together, they're greater than the sum of their rap sheets.*
