Folks , Bonesplitter will never be reprint without drawbacks like cost or this kind of drawback so this is good .

@rollinsclone:
Eh? I think you posted the wrong card there...
I'm really not sure how I feel about this one. I suppose it has it's spot in 5-color whatever decks, which there are plenty. But as far as standard goes, it's only ever going to match Bonesplitter, and will often times be weaker. I think I'm only disappointed because they wouldn't work very well in my white equipment deck.
Bonesplitter is a solid 4, I guess this deserves a 3-3.5

Great uncommon artifact. It's cheap and surprisingly effective. Certainly my Rakdos Cackler appreciated it at pre-release and I think it'll be even stronger if three colour creatures appear towards the end of this Ravnica block.

I love this card. Its not overpowered, but its right-on-the-money in terms of cast/equip cost and its ability. It wont do anything for colorless, its lack-luster in monocolored, but the chance to play turn 1 Rakdos Cackler or Judge's Familiar and swing for 3-4 damage on turn 2 isn't a bad play. In Sinker (after Gatecrash) there's likely to be 3+ color creatures, maybe even Nephilim will show up again.
VERY good in limited, hasn't made a presence in constructed (and probably will never be a powerhouse, but that's ok) but the fact that its a 1 drop with a 1 cost equip makes it a card to consider. I give it 4/5 for doing what it does efficiently and cheaply (and it can be a monster in the right deck).

To be held by Rafiq of the Many, perhaps? This is one of the cheapest reusable ways to give him +3/+0.

GILBIC. Therefore 2-3 stars out of five.
