It's much better than Holy Strength or Unholy Strength. It can replace either of those cards, but more importantly, it's doubly good for creatures that are both black and white.
It's not narrower, it's broader and has twice the potential.

To be fair, though the stat increase for so low a cost is nice, all it does is make your creature big. It doesn't protect it from dying, or give it a way to destroy your opponents creatures in combat like double strike. Having a big creature never hurts, but there are a thousand and one ways to do that in magic and a limited number of both white and black creatures. It's still good for a white/black heavy deck, but otherwise isn't particularly special for what it does.

Turn 1, Dark Ritual to Nip Gwyllion with this twice. 7/7 lifelink in the first turn. Ouch.

Otherwise, works great with Evershrike as well.

seriously, this is a good card! It can do both holy strength and unholy strength but it can do both on hibrid. it dousn't have any weaknesses compared to them. it just works the same as both of them seperatly or together. If you had a white/black aggro deck with no hybrid creatures and you had some room for holy or unholy strength which would you choose? a strength or this? the answer is obviously this because, like I have previously mentioned, it buffs the same as both of them at the same time.

Edit: It actually does have a downside. You can't holy strength a black creature or unholy strength a white creature with this. still more versitile though.

Is it better than Holy Strength and Unholy Strength? That really depends. I wouldn't deck this card unless I had more than a handful of hybrid creatures to reap both bonuses. If you don't have the stuff to do so, the card's a narrower version of the two above-mentioned cards, which isn't always a bad thing because it can be white Unholy or black Holy depending on the color of the creature you're enchanting. Overall, it's pretty good.

@ AXER:

That's not a combo; that's doing what the card designers told you to do.

Putting Fallen Angel, Grave Pact, and some Reassembling Skeleton cards into play together is a combo.

That is: it's not obvious, meaning that you have to use some amount of creativity of your own, yet it works like crazy.

Putting Priest of Titania and a bunch of other elf cards into play is not a combo. Playing Edge of Divinity on a creature that is black and white is not a combo. Playing a black and white enchantment on Nightsky Mimic, and then attacking with Mimic, is not a combo. Those plays take as much thought or creativity as putting Mountain cards into a deck with Fireball cards. Doing those things is just following steps that have been laid out for you by others.

I am not insinuating that AXER or any other player is unintelligent, stup... (see all)

Get a Scuttlemutt so you can make your creature Black/White.
