Lightning Greaves don't see much constructed play. I doubt this will either.

Better than greaves for certain purposes obviously, but perhaps a little less powerful. 4.5/5 seems fair. Always hate waiting a turn before sending in my fatties.

Really? Folks are complaining that the combo with Leonin Shikari now costs 1 to use instead of 0? It's still damned good, and that seems to me to be a small price to pay to get Hexproof instead of Shroud. Yeah, you could temporarily move the Greaves over to another creature if you wanted to target your creature yourself, but if you don't have the Shikari, that opens you up to any instant-speed removal (which is most of them).

@DICK (That sounds wrong)

Even more is give one of your creatures all equipments.

Although it'd make all of them technically redundant. I'm also not sure if something has shroud, if it could be equipped.
Can someone help, please?

Lightning Greaves is way better... Even if it has shroud all you gotta do is un-equip the greaves for free, put your swords, enchantments, or whatever on the creature and re-equip the greaves.... Sure you cant instant speed buff the thing but who cares.

Has anyone else noticed how ridiculous this card's name is? Just say that out loud to yourself: Swiftfoot Boots. Chuckle-worthy, at the very least.

Worse than greaves, since it basically delays all your creatures by one turn, if you want them to have haste and be protected. Still good. 2.5/5
