Very restricted use, double-white mana cost or the drawback in general wouldn't really have been necessary at all.

Best Vs Zombie decks, but still good Vs Incarnations, and Threshold decks. Run with Lifeline.

this set is the only one that justifies this in any way but all in all this is one of the worst graveyard hate cards ever, and at a rare slot it is rather annoying

You know a card is bad when it only gets mentioned to explain bizarre rules in the Comp. Rules. ("702.2d The deathtouch rules function no matter what zone an object with deathtouch deals damage from.")

Whoa! Talk about a lot of hate for this card... I must agree though, it costs too much. It would be great if it was 3W. Back when it was printed in Judgement, there was a lot of threshold decks and reanimating decks. This probably was a decent sideboard card against that. It is obsolite now. 2.5/5
Would it have killed them to give this guy vigilance? Geez.

I love this card. I used to use it with Ward of Piety to redirect the damage done to him by creatures he removed onto other creatures, thereby giving him more fuel to kill further creatures with. While it's not a strong card, it's an interesting ability and it's fun to find ways to turn the drawback into an advantage.

Back when I first started playing, when every rare card seems cool because I haven't seen a lot of cards to begin with, this card was one of the "awesome" cards that someone else showed me. In retrospect, I can't believe how bad this card actually is. At least it's somewhat flavorful (but still seems kind of inelegant).

This card is interesting in that it's the only way I can think of to get an exiled card with lifelink to cause lifegain.
Lifegain and deathtouch work irrelevant of zone, so cards in exile and the GY can operate as normal. So, if I exiled a Dawnstrike Paladin with this, its owner would gain 2 life. Weird.
