Fully revealed. My brother already wants a copy for his Nekusar group hug deck.

Seems okay. Not going to make any big splashes in constructed, I would imagine, but he's not bad.

Gaining control of artifacts is good I hear

Was there anyone at wizards that thought the set symbol looked like a condum?

He is cool, but I can't think of any where I will use him. He looks cool for Nekusar deck, but equipment already equipped still stays attached.

Yeah, we haven't seen that effect at this cost, but Steal Artifact has never seen play as far as I know. Dack's much better (for at least three reasons), but is he good enough? I doubt it.

I want to pair him with goblin welder

Steal artifact can't also faithless loot

Postby **Stardust** » Mon May 05, 2014 2:23 pm

Yep. Faithless Looting is also played in somewhere between zero and one decks, so...

I'm not saying he's not good, just that he's not good enough. I'm really interested to see if he does go anywhere just because he is so unique in what he does. At this point though, I don't think he will. Each of his abilities are quite good in a vacuum, but I don't see the really competitve application for him. There are better cards against Affinity. There are better cards to draw more cards. Where does he fit?

Vault or Key was countered

barring that, you could also straight up take someones lodestone golem and beat them to death with it

Vintage is weird.

Yes...yes it is

Mcdonalds · Postby **Mcdonalds** » Mon May 05, 2014 7:08 pm

Vintage where Ral Zarek is borderline playable
