Anyone who has played with the Warrior's Code theme deck knows how important this card is. You're turning a Lunk Errant into a 7/6 with haste and trample for 6 mana. Now that can't be bad - especially when you're running a playset of Brighthearth Bannerets to power into your giants. Warriors are a great theme to play with, and the Obsidian Battle-Axe is a must in such a deck.

yeah there are worse cards, great with chameol co, this is your 3 drop (2 drop with an elf), chameleon in on 3/4 drop haste attach bang bang you're dead and and so easily led i doubt barratt plays mtg though...

This card is definitely the most effective equipment in this set, and one of the best cards..... Nacatl War pride is a warrior, this automatically makes him harder to kill and hit first turn.... better chance of him and all his minions going through. I have it in a warrior deck with Jedit, Stonebrow Krosan hero, bramblewood paragon, doubling seasons, garruk, it all works so synergistically.... and this is a crucial part.

best equipment since umezawa's jitte, though it functions in a totally different way. makes any number of warrior builds much scarier. this card will require the (re)adoption of artifact removal in standard sideboards. playtest with this card and you will grasp its power
