Very strong card. Do you think it should have "with a different controller"? Otherwise it pretty much kills two opposing creatures a turn even in duels.
Also, the flavour text is good, but way too long. What Wizards sometimes do with this kind of thing is have a simple common or uncommon, that has a flavour-wise connection to the rare legend, but minimal rules text in order to have room for the long flavour text on a legend that doesn't have room for it. (E.g. the Invasion cycle of Treva, the Renewer and Treva's Attendant.)
I haven't looked at how the text fits on a card yet. Once I do, I'll trim the flavor text to fit (or move it onto an affiliated card).
EDIT: And that card will be Eye Drive.
