While Modern often doesnt transform overnight, there is usually some movement within archetypes in order to adjust to the metagame
Shadowmoor brought us large numbers of hybrid cards, which tried to change all that by allowing players to choose which color mana to use
Four-mana, discard-twos are problematic because they are slow enough that your opponent could be empty-handed by the time it hits the battlefield
Reason being, the card also says that When Jill primes into Shiva (SVI), Freeze all the Characters opponent controls. These encompass all characters, and not just Forwards, so those who have just entered into the field, or have been dulled to produce CP, could potentially get wrapped up into this
Best wishes on your quest
