I love this card for four reasons:

- The essence of black flavor: powerful effect with powerful drawback.

- flexibility: Can fill a deck's slot for either a removal sorcery OR a creature-boosting aura/equipment

- Combo potential: Kulrath Knight most obviously.

- black-on-black removal: 'nuff said!

Always just say the flavor text for optimal results.

I was always partial to pairing this with either Reprisal or Intrepid Hero. Total of 4 mana (through two colors pretty well-known for their destruction capabilities) to drop two creatures? Not too terrible...

Could combine it with pacifism if you wanted to, which also provides a rather strange flavour.

A cannibalistic pacifist? "I partake not in war...but I feast well on those who do."

There's something amazing about forcing a person to watch one of his favorite creatures be eaten by another of his favorite creatures.

The white background really sets it apart.

Very, very cool stuff.

This is a very clever card and needs to be reprinted.

Hilarious! Black is all about stomach-churning, morally bankrupt acts of greed and with this card your opponent can join in on the fun as well. Imagine elves or angels eating then wearing each other *shudder*

Little did Wizards know that in 2003, Disney's Finding Nemo would ruin this card forever...
"Mine."

Is this card unplayable if they only have one creature in play?
