@jarrod21 It will only do damage, and not poison counters. The reason for this is that it says that the sword will be doing the damage, and not the creature. Too bad though, I love buffing my Infect creatures too.

I disapprove.
Each of the other swords has had two unique abilities (in regards to the other swords), now this one comes along and has life gain (which sword of Light and Shadow already had) and direct damage (which Sword of Fire and Ice already had). This should've been something quite different. Excommunicate and Pyretic Ritual would've made for a unique, flavorful, and fun combination.

I think they did a good job with this one, +2/+2 and pro red/white are a good enough reason to use this card.. it could have so easily been broken

The most aggressive of the Swords, this one can cut someone's life-total down incredibly fast. I suggest anyone who is not convinced of this card's value in-game to play-test it now.

I had some great combos with this sword during the prerelease. I tapped someones defender out with my Vedalken Certarch and then assault strobed my attacker and equipped this. It was nice. :)
