"Should've been equip 0. Still cool though."

@Salient: I agree. Earthcraft wasn't powerful enough.
Far too expensive (1Green), restricted to green decks and limited to the mana you could draw from your basic lands.
A free artifact that turns all your creatures into Birds of Paradise during your main phase seems far more reasonable.

More like "Pair-of-D's Mantle".

With Freed from the Real and Grimoire Thief you have an infinite deck exile engine.

So much combo potential here, especially with those Shadowmoor and Eventide cards that have untap abilities, like Gilder Bairn, Leech Bonder, and Silkbind Faerie.

I've played a lot of decks where this is a part of a combo:

Guilder Bairn with this and a Pentad Prism for inf mana to infinitely boost planeswalkers or whatever else you like to kill with.

Puresight Merrow to scry through your deck instantly until the next card is your winning piece.

With a Freed from the Real on a Goblin Medics for infinite lulz.

I can't remember the others, but there's more. This is basically an Earthcraft for one creature, enabling a lot of the same combos but in a less obviously broken way. Good for any untapping creatures.

@codealpha:
Why would equipping this to Arcanis the Omnipotent be good? I'd rather draw three cards than get one mana.

This is actually sometimes worse than Springleaf Drum. With the drum, summoning sickness doesn't apply, which is why Ravager Affinity uses the drum rather than this. However, this can be used more effectively to make combos.
