New Trap idea

Excuse the noobiness of this post, I'm new to this.
So I was watching TV, and in this one episode, the main character uses maple syrup to slow down this other dude. This sparked my creativity for a new trap that can slow troops down. It would be a 1x1 spaced trap. The animation would be some sort of (A) slowness particles on the troops or (B) Some sort of matter that slows the troops down. The first level would Slow it down by 6%. Lvl 2 Would slow it down 10%. Lvl 3 (Max) would slow them down 15%. This can be countered by a rage or haste, but the effect is still there, so for example, a lvl 1 haste has a speed increase of 28, and a lvl 1 version of this trap hoes slow it down by 6%, so the total speed boost would be 22% instead. I think this will also help the haste spell gain more popularity in terms of spell choice. Let me know what you guys think below and tell me how I can improve my forum posts.

When you say maple syrup , i can relate it to Poison Spell.

This Trap
Slows the opponent.
Damages them in pulses just like Poison Spell [ slightly like 20 , 40 , 60].
Rearm with DE [ 100 approxi. ]

?? If this is the idea then i like It !!
