COMBAT damage. This will only make the spikeshot elder do 3 damage per ping.
Cool card but probably the second worst of the swords so far.

Hmm, maybe:
Sword of Faith and Fury
+2/+2 prot red-white
Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage to a player, if this is the first combat phase this turn, untap all attacking creatures, creatures you control get +1/+1 until end of turn, and there is an additional combat phase after this one.
Of course that would be ridiculously powerful. But how else do we mess with this? I think red's most likely effect would be land destruction, but for white... life gain has already been on a sword, so has token spam, white's removal methods (exile or put on top of library) are both too powerful for a repeated effect, pacifism isn't something they'd put on an effect (but rather an aura), disenchant would just be odd (destroy target land and destroy target artifact or enchantment?), creature buffs, damage prevention, and tapping are not useful on your turn after combat... I could also see extra combat phase and prevent all damage that would be dealt to your creatures, though, that might wor... (see all)

@mike-c
A foil sword is worth about $40, Tezz is worth about 45-50. I would do the trade.

Swords: red-blue > black-white > black-green > blue-green.
Like all swords, this is an awesome card. Still, this is the only sword where the triggered abilities might be at times totally useless. If your opponent has a deck where he doesn't mind discarding, or has no cards in hand, the discard-ability is already useless. The land-untap ability only makes sense as well, when you have something to use the mana on.
I guess the only sword missing now is white-red? Maybe the red part will be land-destruction, and the white part will be... uhm... no idea. Maybe a disenchant effect?

I think the boros (Sword of War and Peace) sword's red effect (War) will be like Gideon's +2, a mass provoke effect, while the white effect (Peace) will be a one-sided Holy Day in your favour.

Suns/blades should be switched on the picture. I find it irritating the way it is now.

Sword of Order and Chaos
+2/+2, Pro Red and White
Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage to player, destroy a non-creature, non-land permanent, and target creature gains defender as long as Sword of Order and Chaos is on the battlefield.
