almost as good as Warhammer
the color and -1/+2 make it an almost .0002% worse then hammer when you are playing these colors

On the plus side, if the equipped creature is destroyed you don't lose the Sledge like you do the Armadillo Cloak. Though for 3 mana, it could be worth it to take your chances, depending on the creature you want to power up. Uril the Miststalker is brutal with a Cloak on him.

Am I crazy or is that the conclave symbol on the side of the hammer?

The obvious point of comparison for this card is Armadillo Cloak, since they have the same initial mana cost and the same effect. However, I'd say they are quite different cards both in the way you play them and in terms of which decks they can go into. This is a much worse turn 3 drop for an aggressive deck than the Cloak, since if you play a two drop creature then play cloak on it and attack, they will have to either find a way to deal with your threat or lose. On the other hand, if their turn goes untap, Doom Blade your guy, you're the one on the back foot.

So Cloak has a bigger potential upside, in that it's a full turn faster, but Sledge is repeatable and doesn't risk card disadvantage (although killing the guy you paid three mana to equip is still a significant loss of tempo). On the other hand, this card is probably amazing in long drawn out slogfests, because it turns any creature you draw later into a legitimate threat, and lifelink ... (see all)

This was possibly the strongest card in sealed deck at the time.

i prefer it to the cloak just because it dosnt die to doom blade and unsummon. the extra 3 mana can be anoying, but zendikar came right after this, full of great land excel.

@ NoobOfLore

you have a defender deck?!?! sweet, me too., so if you equip this to vent sentinle and use his ability to do direct damage to your opponent do you gain the life from lifelink?
