Avacyn, Angel of Hope + this = Akroma EAT YOUR HEART OUT.
You know the funny thing about Kaalia? Her biggest problem now is she is as much of a public enemy as Jace, the Mind Sculptor (maybe not as big a threat, but I feel the community is that divided over loving her/hating her bc of sheer annoyance).
SO because playing her will make a target of her so very instantly, she is *only* good if you play....Tinker-Belle. (Stoneforge Mystic) to make sure you can search up all your armors, and the Black Tutors so you can plunk Avacyn down a.s.a.p.
Well, when you are ''forced'' to play such sick one-two combos as Tinker-Belle + Worldslayer + Avacyn for your 'stay alive support', you MIGHT as well go all in and:
Griselbrand digging for Gisela
or Worldslayer + Animate Dead
or Liliana Vess to Miracle-ize ... (see all)

So, another thread with a completely unrelated comment by DarthParralax on how Kaalia of the Vast is "TEH MOST POWRFUL EDH GENERAL EVER!!111!!". Something tells me he's never taken his kaalia to a real table, she draws tons of early game hate and, unless she was expertly built, runs out of gas on turn 5, when the other decks are preparing to rape the table.
And you don't want to throw this into a Kaalia deck BTW. Doesn't give her almost any protection and costs ten million mana to play and equip. But I have to agree it is one nice piece of equipment. Look at how many keyword abilities it grants! And the flavor! Not as broken as the Swords of X and Y (Sword of War and Peace, et al) but that's OK since those are too powerful anyway.

My man Wurmcoil, who is awesome already, tends to be more awesome when he can destroy 8 creatures that block him without being dealt damage.
Some people say "What was Wizards thinking, making this cost {3} and its equip cost {3}?" I say, what are you thinking?
Wizards, I would've loved a reprint. Maybe next time.
EDIT: It's her sword so I feel it should have this card's name.

@nammertime: Sacred Wolf + this... That's basically the premise of Ameratsu from Okami.

I love how cheap this thing is!! If it had equip cost of 2 like the other sword of X and Y, then it would be more expensive. Solid card none the less.

With a combined CMC and Equip cost of 6 it can LOOK expensive, but anyone who knows how to use artifacts can get around that easy. And since all of its abilities have such great synergy this card is pretty much ballin' in Equip focused decks like Human tribal.

@ HairlessThoctar
Yes, she is a 4/6 flying protection from black and red angel, but she would also cost only 5 mana, which would make her way better for hard casting decks that play her, but make her so much less of an game ender.
