Pretty neat interaction

So you all for the most part know about the interactions of Boros Reckoner
and cards like Harvest Pyre
. You get to deal a ton of direct damage to the face. Well what about Clan Defiance
? In the late game you can double up the damage dealt to your opponent. X=6? You take 12. And your annoying as hell angel dies. It may not be as effective as Blasphemous Act
but in the reckoner mirror it is much better. Just a thought, but I really like Clan Defiance
right now.

I run Clan Defiance as a 1-of in my Huntmaster Bant deck. It serves as a win condition when I have 10 mana out or removal, which I lack. I've found it to be really helpful even without Boros Reckoner . dealing double damage to the face is ok, but only as a finisher, most likely. Losing a reckoner is stupid. Of course if you want to Jump through hoops you could have two reckoners, one with flying (Jump through hoops, get it XD) and get triple damage...

I haven't tested it myself yet, but a friend of mine included it in his naya ramp deck and i was actually blown out by it every time it hit for value while playing my current standard deck: 4 color midrange.

What a coincidence. Last night, I decided to include Clan Defiance in my Jund deck's sideboard as a poor-man's Bonfire of the Damned . I'm hoping it works out well.
Have you tested it? How has it been?
