Excellent card. Can get down right sick with Winter Orb and Howling Mine. All the benefit for you, none for your opponent.

A great artifact, only outdone by the Icy Manipulator's versatility...

Damn, this took its sweet time getting reprinted.

I wouldn't say that this is worse than Icy Manipulator. This is cheaper to cast and cheaper to use, so the restriction is ok. Good sideboard and combo material.

Wow! An incredibly useful artifact that is still appropriate for constructed play, from Legends. Howling Mine and Trinisphere bow in thanks.

I like how this card is colored sepia (that orange brown color) to show how old it is. It looks so dramatically different in its second printing.

I like how they went from this to Touchstone in Weatherlight back to this in Fifth Dawn.
