Power/Toughness switcher

Power/Toughness switchers are effects or spells that switch the power and toughness of a creature. This effect usually lasts until end of turn.

The original card that showed this effect was the black <c>Transmutation</c> from Legends. Nowadays, it is primary in blue and secondary in red.

While generally either a combat or utility effect, this effect can combo off with effects that only reduces power, like <c set="" number="" title="Hydrosurge" artist="">Hydrosurge</c>, to create a graveyard-sending removal effect. While that effect is okay with red, as it does send creatures to the graveyard via damage, this can be seen as a color break for blue since its form of creature removal involves bouncing them. This combo of effects would be given a nod in <c set="" number="" title="Twisted Reflection" artist="">Twisted Reflection</c>, where black mana (a color that sends creatures to the graveyard as removal) is needed to give the blue spell both effects that will send creatures to the graveyard.
