Rationale
6cmc 7/5 Beholder with a modal ETB: either strip an enchantment from each opponent or grant your team menace until end of turn. The enchantment-hate mode is useful in enchantment-heavy metas; the menace mode supports go-wide attacks. At 6 mana with a double-black pip requirement, it's a reasonable threat but competes with stronger options at this cost in black midrange shells.
