Gameplay

Instant

Chaotic Backlash deals damage to target player equal to twice the number of white and/or blue permanents they control.

The concept of thoughtweft fascinates the Nighthearth cult. Imagine, bringing agony to an entire people by torturing just one.

Each permanent is counted only once. For example, if the targeted player controls a white creature, a blue enchantment, and a white-blue creature, Chaotic Backlash will deal 6 damage to that player.
