Interesting artifact concerning the story between Urza and Mishra. But unfortunately, unlike the Meekstone, this one isn't really that playable.

At first read it seems funny to put the phrase "Creatures with power less than 1 deal no damage." on the card. Perhaps it was intended to just affect attacking creatures or it was some kind of reminder text (and Oracle deleted the ability entirely!), but when you think about it, there would still be some narrow use to it, see Suq'Ata Firewalker, Cinder Pyromancer.

If they reinstate the second ability it would work well against Doran, the Siege Tower as well.

Well, hoses a bunch on UN-creatures. Anything with 1 1/2 power or less. 1/2 is less than 1.

Considering how powerful the Mightstone and Weakstone were in the fiction, this thing is just sad.

I'm glad the card's original text told me that creatures with 0 power won't do any damage. I couldn't have figured that out on my own.
I'm just sad they didn't also explain how to subtract one from a number. That one I had to look up on the Internet. :(

Doesn't the Oracle text not match the printed text at all?
"All attacking creatures lose -1/-0" - I can only assume that losing a negative number means that you should add it, and attacking creatures should get +1/+0.
"Creatures with power less than 1 deal no damage" - doesn't say combat damage, so this shouldn't be assumed to be reminder text. Creatures with 0 power shouldn't be able to deal non-combat damage either.
