@Donovan: you really don't need Kor Outfitter since stonehewer attaches the equipment already
Also, it's better to search for General's Kabuto rather than Lightning Greaves with this guy since with the kabuto you can attack with him more confidently than you would with the greaves

He has vigilance, so you declare your attack with him, then use his ability as a fast effect to equip him before damage is dealt. Such a great ability!!! 5/5

Holy crap, this blows stoneforge mystic out of the water, and that's just insane.

This card is surprisingly good, lightning greaves can give instant shroud, as well as shield of kaldra for indestructibility. Inside of two turns you can either make the giant or another creature both shrouded and indestructible. Pair up with kor outfitter for an equipment deck.

My WW Equipment Deck needs a great card like this as, the ability to tutor equipment like loxodon warhammer, kaldra cards and Jitte's is great, being able to (for 0 manna) equip it is even better.

Does this card's ability allow to put equipment on a shrouded creature? It doesn't exactly say "target" anywhere on the card. It is kinda inferred, yes, but not actually stated as targeted.

nvm... shoulda checked the rulings first.

while loxodon punisher is certainly not badly synergized w this guy I'd say loxodon belongs in a deck with lots of cheap equipment cards, whereas this guy is made for Argentum Armor and other expensive equipment cards, put not on guys that get bonuses pr attached but rather with abilities that multiply their effect, ie with stuff like doublestrike, lifelink, infect or awsome abilities where defensive equipment like darksteel plate and lightning greaves come in handy.
awsome card, useable in many decks, with 4/4 vigi for 5 mana you dont even need to aim the deck at using him. (ie a couple of swords and an argentum armor and 2 of these could go into any creature deck)
In general i'd probably go w various swords and protection from opponent colors rather than shroud for defense.
