Two mana is reasonable, but a sorcery requiring a creature already in play is too conditional for most Modern removal slots.

Could be wrong if A resilient creature shell that routinely presents multiple bodies could make its combined damage unusually efficient.

Legacy's efficiency and interaction punish a two-mana sorcery that needs a surviving creature before it can answer anything.

Could be wrong if A creature-heavy shell needing a way to remove large blockers without losing its own creatures could test it.

Elves can combine small creatures to remove a meaningful blocker without fighting, but sorcery speed and board dependence limit breadth.

Could be wrong if If creature decks become more prominent, its scalable damage could earn recurring maindeck adoption.

It can turn two established creatures into clean creature removal, but is narrow, sorcery-speed, and replaceable in optimized lists.

Could be wrong if Dense token or high-power creature strategies may value the no-retaliation, combined-damage clause more than expected.

Efficient removal that preserves your creatures and can combine their power to kill larger threats is a premium common, despite setup.

Could be wrong if Unknown creature sizing, speed, and removal density may make maintaining one or two creatures harder than expected.
