It costs less overall for any amount of damage than Rod of Ruin does for just one ping, and it gives you card advantage as well. Six mana is a tad high, but in EDH that's no problem at all. This is even seeing play in Standard sideboards. 5/5

I like that they have another option for white and/or red EDH decks. Those colours have the least options for drawing cards.

Why not print a BlueRed version of it? In this way, it should cost less...

4/5

Even though it's not exactly the same, I like to call it "Staff of Niv."

@lord_of_phyrexia: You're either trolling or stupid. Either way, 0/5 for you.

Great card. Against green it's great to hurt reptiles, or using it as an eraser for weenies, or just putting your opponent into a slow downward spiral that brings you closer to victory.

Woefully underpowered for how much it costs. For 6cmc it needs to draw 2 cards to be worth it for me.
