Skizzik

View on Unleash Mechanic

For the person asking about why people like Dash, it's not actually what I would call a downside mechanic. It's like Evoke, where you are given an option to get some value from the card, but not the full value, and in exchange you get a discount. Dash/Evoke are very much Kicker, taking after Skizzik. Paying the "kicker" of the full price of the creature removes the sacrifice/bounce clause it would otherwise have.

Opting into a downside to get an upside is different than having no option.
