So I found some cards I made a while back. I'm trying to get some feedback on them. Here's the first:
Piercing Emotion 
Instant
Gain control of target creature that was dealt damage this turn. Untap that creature. It gains haste until end of turn. At end of turn, return it to its owner's control with a +1/+1 counter on it.

@Atony1400 but this isn't broken at all.
in fact, its SUPER awkward to use since to make it usable you have to do the damage before combat and Not kill it with the damage.

Oh yeah, I forgot the "dealt damage this turn" clause. Disregard my comment.

even without that clause it would just be a Mark of Mutiny. which is just a worse Act of Treason in most cases.

Derpling, it's an instant. You can use it as a combat trick to eliminate two creatures your opponent controls.

I felt this would mostly be used with Prodigal Pyromancer type effects or first strike creatures.

I just think it has too big of a hoop to jump through in order to be useful. I don't even think this would be worth it in limited unless there were many enablers.

With a conditional like that and ending by giving it a +1/+1 counter you could make it a one-drop. It's overbalanced slightly, but the card's function also gives it flavor. I like it.

I think
is too little. Maybe 
might be better, so It's not on the verge of being broken.
