I've been staring at this thing a while and am surprised I only saw 1 person talk about graft with it. It was even in standard with it once! Think about all that grafting... Graft them straight to the grave and what happens... They come back, just to get helped up by all the cards it grafted onto itself. Things just Keep getting bigger! Add a doubling season for some added grins. Works along the same lines of Sekki, can be done with less mana.

@Atogatogatog: Actually, the name "Shirei" is derived from the characters for "death" and "zero". You can see this on the Japanese and Chinese translations of this card.

@BlackDoveProphet
When one enters the battlefield, it will be a 1/1. When the other enters the battlefield, it will be a 2/2 (having stolen the counters from the other). The other will die. At the end of the turn, you will return the Spike that died to the battlefield, and it will grab the counters from the other (now making it a 3/3), and the other will die. No lockdown.

This can be fun with 0/0 creatures that go to the graveyard as a state based effect. Clockwork creatures for example or Graft creatures, Phantoms, The potentials for abuse here are pretty wide.

Makes cards like Lord of the Pit happy.
