Double strike that is resistant to Wrath effects wins games.

The equip cost of 2} really makes this. It's easy to equip it to a Ball Lightning!

Whenever my opponents play a creature with double strike, my stomach drops. Now they have the ability to give any creature double strike for 2. And it's reusable...

Seriously though, I can see this causing people to maindeck artifact removal in standard.

While I do like the card, I don't think it's playable in Standard. All five Swords might have been somewhat overpowered, but those are in fact closer to the power level of the current Standard than this card. Bant / Naya Hexproof is one deck that might make use of this, but I'm sticking to Ajani, Caller of the Pride.

This will always look like an Isochron Scepter casting Banefire to me. :P

I don't know if there is a more appropriate Mirrodin artifact to name than Isochron Scepter, I don't remember its name? I'm just saying "Vorthos sees Banefire coming out of a casty-cast spell-makey thing" :D

Sometimes I prefer nquisitor's Flail more, because running multiples isn't as much of a problem as it costs less, and it has a multiplying effect, rather than a redundant one. This however, is great with "dealing damage to a player" triggers.

Attaching this to Mind Drinker , does it cause his effect to go off twice because he hits the person twice?

Daxos of meletis really benefits from this

Being a Timmy and attaching this to Colossus of Akros while it's monstrous is probably the best thing that's ever happened to me.

I love this card to death. As someone who gravitates pretty frequently to Blue or Black, double strike is the ability I'm always sad to be missing out on. I'm eternally grateful there's a way to get it in any color, even if it takes a bit of mana investment up front.
