Not a bad card at all, but its downside is if you dont have tons of artifacts in your deck that you get out regularly, its pretty much just a wall. IF you do have an artifact deck tho, you would be a fool! not to buy one. Why? because when i use my artifact deck, and i get this card out, i , never, lose.

ok you might think this card is bad cause of the mana cost but if you have bringer of the white dawn thin each turn you can bring an artifact to the feald from your grave yard

A fairly good card overall, this card excels in affinity decks or decks that include a ton of artifacts. It does cost some amount of mana for what it does but if you are playing affinity then you are almost always leaps and bounds ahead of your oppoenent. If you like it, try it in your artifact deck, you probably won't be disappointed at all.

This is one of the coolest cards in Darksteel. It destroys creatures whenever it touches them, and it gets +1/+1 for every artifact you control. There is only one small backdraw and that is it has a cost of five mana.
