The most annoying part about this card is not the equipment. It's that the counter is put on when you CAST a creature. So if you have the perfect opening hand in a deck based around this card, the opponent will be scooping...

Please note that there are no activation restrictions.
You are not required to immediately fetch an equipment when you reach 5 counters.
You are not required to remove 5 counters and sacrifice as a sorcery.
So this turns into an instant-speed silver bullet equipment tutor. Like, for instance, putting Elbrus, the Binding Blade on an unblocked attacker.

It's good for combos, obviously... but doesn't fit in a typical creatures/equipment deck.

Before running this card, there are a few questions you should ask yourself:
1. What is your name?
2. What is your quest?
3. What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen Storm Crow?

Wooo-hooo! Remember that creature you didn't block? Well now it's got a Worldslayer on it! Surprise!

Good News!!
With the new Memnites in Scars, the Ornithopters from M11, combining this and Argentum Armor, you can swing turn two with a 6/8 Ornithopter, or a 7/7 Memnite!!
. . .
Okay, though that may be HIGHLY unlikely, it's still worth a shot, ya know...

Some guy tried telling me I can't stifle this card's last "ability". Really? Cuz he did say ABILITY, when it is an activated ability?! Plus there's a colon hiding.

Five counters is a lot, but for one mana it's not too shabby. Maybe get two of these out with a few Kor Duelists and Kor Skyfishers to trigger that quest counter every turn for as many as possible.
Then when you get something like anArmament Master out, you can sac the card and immediatly put something nice on him. Or maybe do it twice over.
