It isn't good; It doesn't work;

Its cost is much too high--

And now they took away the flavor text;

I kinda want to cry!

WAAAA!

I have to stand up for the old artwork. The previous version was twisted and menacing, with really crisp detail; it fit nicely with the core set reprints' flavor text perfectly. This new version looks muted, cartoony, and hardly phyrexian at all.

The fourth-wall breaking new flavor text makes it even harder to take it seriously. We get it: this is not the first printing of this card.

1000 times strictly worse than Wurmcoil Engine. But then again Wurmcoil Engine dies to 3 Doom Blades.

Am I the only one who finds it hilarious that this Phyrexian weapon of ages past is LESS powerful overall than an angry Streetsweeper in Ravnica? A 5/4 for 6 vs. a 4/6 with a random little ability for the same casting cost? The Phyrexians have really been slipping lately, or this was more of a failed experiment of ages past vs. a quality weapon. And it still loses to Wurmcoil Engine - badly.

The flavor text has pretty terrible grammar. Then again, I suppose that that tends to be par for the course with Magic cards.

7th Edition had the best art too, so I guess all around this reprint was poorly done.

Never thought I'd have something to debate taking Razorfield Rhino over...
