These are great. Everything about them is great. If you don't like them, don't trade or buy them. Otherwise your MtG experience will remain largely the same. This is a trading card game. Part of what makes it fun is the existence of sweet cards like this.
Will this influence my decision to buy sealed product? No.
Will it be fun to rip one when I'm drafting? Yes.
Will it be fun to window shop them at GP's and SCG events? Yes.
Will it adversely affect my bank account? Not any more than MtG already does.
I see these as pure value add. It only improves the quality of the product and yet another fun aspect of an already spectacular game.

LtGlitter posted a message on [Primer] Wx Death and TaxesSo what are peoples thoughts on the newly spoiled equipmentPosted in: Modern Archives - Established
Hero's Blade. 2
Artifact - Equipment
Equipped creature gets +3/+2
Whenever a legendary creature enters the battlefield under your control, you may attach Hero's Blade to it.
Equip 4
No benefit other than the P/T on your creatures, which isn't amazing compared to swords but we get a free equip on Thalia, Brimaz, Linvalla or any other legendary you might be running in the deck. I wouldn't mind having a 5/4 First Striker on turn 3 some of the time. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Can be relevant at any stage of the game and ETB triggers means it's not a horrible top deck late game since you are likely playing creatures with this.
Great for Atraxa to boot!
The fact that it will enable turn 3 Gideon on some of your matches is a big deal.

Torrential just looks silly. I think Verdurous and Noxious are the only cool ones imo.

I'm feeling the Nyx-Fleece Ram. As soon as wall of resurgence was discussed I thought of the ram since I don't have any walls and thought the inclusion of a large body to stall the ground made sense in this meta as you point out. I played the ram a lot in standard, and it was often a wrench in the opponents plan, which caused just enough disruption to have my game plan come on top. I'm still messing around with other cards, but if they don't pan out I'm trying the ram as well.
Thanks to LtGlitter I will probably include the sword of light and shadow since I run Oriss, Samite Guardian. Again, we'll se what happens, but just want to see it combo off once lol.

That would be fan-firkin-tastic!!... and it would be perfect if the upgraded version was no more than 3cmc... even if legendary we could have two Thalias on the board!!!
