Honestly though. Invisblade conrtol should be crazy good in this set...

In a limited game, my opponent put this on a Homicidal Brute. I lost in two turns. It added insult to injury, that he bounced my Balefire Dragon TWICE to my hand.

If I only had remembered that Geistglame in my graveyard at the time...

I think Gitaxian Probes and Ponders are good early game spells to boost this baby up by the time you equip it, say, Turn 4 to a Blighted Agent or Rot Wolf. Don't forget those Mutagenic Growths!

Why I specifically chose infect creatures there is a mystery to me too, to be honest :$

This could quite easily get there. I'm amazed the blue red Delver decks don't make use of this. It adds another use to the Ponder, Gut Shot and other burny' card advantagy' spells in there.

Switch this card's rarity with Trepanation Blade and Innistrad is perfect. Or at least if it weren't for Snapcaster.

This thing is amazing in blue and especially in something like Delver. Its use tapers down considerably in certain colors, making it just shy of five stars for me, but this can win a game for the right deck almost on its own.

Green buff spells such as Titanic/Giant Growth would be nice to further fortify your creature if you have several other instant/sorceries in your graveyard!

Green/Blue w/Stalker seems like a viable option for this weapon!

I personally love this card. Threw four of em in my B/G control deathtouch deck and it works wonders. While I'm keeping my opponent at bay with murder, dismember, victim of the night, etc... My typhoid rats, recluses, and Vampire nighthawks just beef up...and I don't know about anyone else but deathtouch plus first strike is up there in my books.

After a quiet long game with my mono blue control deck, I equipped this to my only creature on the battlefield, Augur of Bolas and swinged for 18. :D Absolutely gorgeous card!

Shame Nivmagus Elemental exiles the spells...

Oh well, goes great with Kamahl, Pit Fighter especially.
