"Guess where I'm gonna plant this!"

Seriously, though, this is classy. That giant... tusk, whatever it is, has some Thor's hammer-esque conditional weightlessness going on. Only the chosen one can weild it and not look like a total toolbox doing it!

Bonds of Faith, Theros-style. I must admit, doublestrike is a lot more appealing than +2/+2.

Clever. +100% or -100% damage, depending.

Love these double-ended auras. Boost your own creature or lockdown someone else's. Nice to see this new version of Bond of Faith.

I actually find this card quite elegantly designed.
The option to do harm or to buff your own creature is, of course, welcome. But what I appreciate most is the actual stuff that it gives.
The "pacifism" side is not as good, but man oh man, doublestrike for 3? Suppose it's already on a big enchanted and evasive creature? I can already picture the expression on your opponent's face when you deliver a big creature enchanted by this to him.

4/5 for an elegantly designed common card

This spear is the spear that will pierce the heavens.

I hope this is a recurring theme for white now. After Bonds of Faith, I was hungry for more "Benefit one type and hinder another" white auras.

I think this may be my favorite card of this set. Humbler of Mortals weapon of choice.

At the prerelease, I got 2 Master of the Feast and in one game, I played him out turn 3, and on turn 4 gave him doublestrike. 10 flying damage on turn 4 against an opponent with no creatures. He scooped after he drew his next card.

Lazenca_Seifus: Actually, in the original myths, Mjølnir was never "conditionally weightless". It was only because Thor had a magical belt of strength that he was able to lift it, because even he wasn't strong enough without it. Mjølnir could, however, be hidden away in a magical "hammer space" and be picked out of there at any time.
