by Sorrow:

I was originally going to use deaththouch in place of infect, but then thought, nah, why not?.

For challenge Challenge # 106

by Link:

I would say "why not" because infect isn't Ravnican, unless your idea of the set is "New Phyrexia invades Ravnica," which I must admit I've seen more than once.

by jmgariepy:

I don't think I'd like infect in Ravnica, to be honest, but if it ended up in Golgari the third time around, I wouldn't bat an eye. It's the exact kind of linear mechanic that happens to feed into other linear mechanics (-1/-1 counters) that Ravnica really seems to like.

by Sorrow:

If this was for a proper cardset I'd have stuck with deathtouch. I feel the challenges allow me to get a bit more "crazy" and do something like use infect where's its mechanically but flavorfully justified.

by Link:

Fair enough.
