Batterskull the Unreal

Folk it takes allot to impress me now a days. 5 mana for a Living weapon equipment that comes in a 4/4 Life-link with vigilance starts to come to that line. then add the fact that it has pay 3 return it to your hand to defend itself and/or re-spawn a germ token? Battereskull is fantastic. When I saw it my first thought was how mean a follow up to phyrexia negater this card would be. but then i had a thought that kind of hurt.... what about stoneforge mystic? for one white mana and one colorless mana you will be able to search your deck for a 4/4 Life-link with vigilance, thats nice. but on turn three sneaking him into play for two mana? now that is just wrong. The addition of Batterskull is going to be a format defining addition. It will change the way aggro decks are constructed as his healing is to much to deal with other wise. it will change the way caw-blade (soon to be called caw-skull) will be played. and it will warp the meta at least until stoneforge mystic is distanced from this piece of evil in October.
