Put this on a Dauthi Horror or Dauthi Slayer and watch your opponents scramble. I love it. Glad poison counters were brought back, if only in two cards.

Like very other poison card, this is expensive. Too bad it doesn't combo with Doubling Season or you could hit your opponent twice with this on a creature. I have tried many times to make a poison deck and have NEVER been successful with one. There are no big beefy creatures with Poison and all poison creatures are too expensive. That is why this aura got me thinking, put it on any decent size creature or any modest creature with evasion and poison for the win is in the running!
Great. Poison has been a fan favorite since it was introduced, and should be brought back, hopefully with this card being reprinted. It could use some more cheep, small poisonous creatures to bring your opponent to kill range so this can finish them off.
I like to put this card on a shadow creature and watch my friends flick me off and leave the table.
If only they were prepared to deal with poison they wouldn't care, but it's so dang strong when you blindside someone with it. Wizards! Make some more poison/anti-poison cards!

@Pantheon I think the card you are looking for is Virulent Sliver.

Nice one with new infect-creatures... Killed my opponent with Hand of Prateros encahnted with this...
How has no one been talking about the art? This thing looks fantastic! That aside, this does stack with infect yes, but it still isn't good. on a creature with infect, it might as well read:
Enchanted creature gets +3/+0
Slightly different, I know, but that will be the effect almost 100% of the time. Suddenly less exciting, huh? Oh, and when the creature dies, you lose even more card advantage from this thing croaking too. With the release of infect this card has become a nearly worthless relic. I used to have this in a poison deck I played. Good thing I enjoy the art.

I think this mechanic is obsoleted by infect, but one plus side is that you still deal normal damage.

Oh, yeah and give us a 1/1 for 1 with poison!
deck, need to pick up a playset
Good, but...
Cunning Sparkmage?
Better...but...
Pestilence Demon with a Hedron-Field Purists in play = teh epic. 4 black mana kills any number of opponents in a multiplayer game.
Cunning Sparkmage doesn't work. It says on the card that it has to deal COMBAT damage.

But yeah...Blighted Agent? Although Invisible Stalker might be a better target since it's hexproof...
