About Strength of Arms

Strength of Arms, Instant, designed by John Stanko first released in Apr, 2016 in the set Shadows over Innistrad and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.18.

Strength of Arms would benefit a white weenie or equipment-based deck in Magic: the Gathering, as it provides a temporary power boost to a creature and has the potential to create an additional token if an Equipment is in play. While it can be a useful combat trick in certain situations, other cards like Giant Growth or Advent of the Wurm offer more impactful effects for a similar mana cost, so Strength of Arms may not see widespread play in competitive decks but could be a fun inclusion in casual or themed decks.

Rules

08/07/20

The Human Soldier token that you’ll create can’t be the target to get +2/+2.

08/07/20

You’ll create a Human Soldier token if you control any Equipment, not just one attached to the target creature, or even to any creature at all.
