If only this came a set later, it could have had Living Weapon. I'm sure it would have cost 1-2 more to play or equip, or just had lower p/t boost, but there really should have been a Living Weapon with infect.

Anything that gives a creature Infect is already pretty strong.
An equipment that does it is extremely powerful, even with the (somewhat of a) drawback.
I've seen this be included into a lot of EDH, for good reason, especially Voltron-style.

Allen Williams and Wizards. Providing hundreds of Myr Battlespheres with insta-kill backbones at low low prices.
The drawback is hardly a drawback. Just keep attacking with whatever you equipped it with. Infect causes so much pain you should be attacking every turn with an infect creature anyway. Only thing that sucks is if they zap the skeleton, you lose your creature. Still, being able to give any creature you chose infect (and jack it up to boot) for any color of mana is nuts.

@JaxsonBateman: That's actually a 2 for 0, since you killed two cards of your opponents but didn't actually spend any of your own (since the creature is still in play).

Good card. I'd run this for use on my zombie lords in a zombie-infect deck that mixes infect zombies with their non-infecting lords.
Two words would take this from uncommon to mythic: Living Weapon.

So, let me get this straight... if I join the Phyrexian Army,
I get to become a Giger Alien on Infectious Steroids?
Well, sign me up!
In reality, try slapping this on a Black Cat.
Not only is it ridiculous, flavor-wise,
but it's a lose-lose situation for your opponent-
they either use removal and discard at random,
or let a 3/3 Infectious feline run rampant on the battlefield.
Also works great w/ Undying, like Geralf's Messenger or Stormbound Geist.
The sacrifice only makes them stronger!

I really love the flavor of this card! Ripping apart your creatures so you can graft this to a new creature, turning it into a kind of abomination. Plus, 
is actually not bad for such a powerful effect. And only 
to move it to a new creature once the first creature is killed or you've grown bored of it.
It does make you feel delightfully evil, doesn't it?
