I like that, but I think it would be worded differently.
If another creature would deal combat damage to an opponent, [NAME] deals that much combat damage to that player instead.
What color would that be? It sounds kinda blue, a creature based hive mind per se, but already has a slight presence in green with the hydra that hits everyone.
Simic sounds good for that kind of ability. Though it might be too powerful as is.
Symbiosia --
Legendary Creature - Ooze (MR)
,
: Choose X target creatures you control. Until the end of turn, whenever any of those creatures would deal combat damage to a player, Symbiosia deals that much combat damage to that player instead.

And another fun one... could be a cycle of commanders.
Eloya, Blessing of Hope --
Legendary Enchantment Creature - God (MR)
Flying, vigilance
Bestow
(X is the number of times Eloya was previously cast from the command zone.)
Enchanted creature gets +4/+4 and has flying, vigilance, and "If Eloya is your commander, this creature deals combat damage in the form of commander damage."

Or even a commander "removal spell"
Command from Above --
Sorcery (R)
Target creature becomes its owner's commander. That creature remains its owner's commander as it moves to any zone.
