This card seems sorta strong in the right limited deck. It might even be a game-ender in the right casual/constructed deck. I haven't drafted/cracked one yet... how does it fair?

this card can be quite good if you run a strickly artifact deck, and if you have a few bone saw's then and a way to bounce cards back to your hand, then he can be continually unblockable not to mention attaching the bone saw to him as well, good card unter the right use

This guy is sick in a Thopter Foundry deck, but anything with an artifact generator should make him at the very least unblockable each turn. Dig out your Genesis Chambers and Pentavuses (Pentavi?)

This is something of a special card. On the wrong deck five will seem too much for a 3/4 creature but this card is meant to have synergy with other cards. As it has been said before Thopter foundry and pretty much all equip cards make for excellent synergy with Glassdust Hulk, plus think of the potential of having more than one of this guys in the battlefield. Done right this can be quite a powerful game-ender.

Oh lordy I love giant intimidating robots. Even if they run on magic.

Absolutely nucking futs in a deck that's built around Open the Vaults.

How is it that no one here has mentioned the double Sharuum, the Hegemon combo? The legend rule kills 'em both, trigger revives one, trigger revives second one, both die, repeat ad infinitum. Attack with infinite/infinite unblockable creature.

Myr Incubator is fun, too. Not infinite, but usually close enough.

This thing is one of the many examples of retarded power creep in some of the newer sets. This should be uncommon at the least.

Yeah, it should totally be uncommon. My friends despise this card because I have a strictly Artifact deck, and every turn someone is taking 4 to the face, and what with four of them in my deck... Was so good when I used auras and got a Daybreak Coronet on him...can you say win?

if you put this guy in a deck full of mirrodin block goodies, he gets really out of hand, really fast. with enough genesis chambers, esperzoas, and similar cards you can keep this guy consistently at around 10-15 power... it ends games fast.

Thinking of splashing white in my blue artifact/control deck for this guy, ever since I realized that Etherium Sculptor + 2 Sensei's Divining Tops = infinite/infinite unblockable beatstick.

This guy is fun. He's the right P/T for his cost as an artifact creature, his colors, and his ability, and he's so easy to break in a combo.

I wanted to put him in my esper deck but i just ran out of room. I picked Salvage Titan over him.....i'm still questioning that decision. Especially since salvage titan is a rare and this is a common.

In many decks, this is played as (U/W)
Instant

Draw a card.

4 stars for being a white 1-cost draw effect. +1 star for potentially being a creature, if you draw it late-game and really need it.

The Cycling line was enough to get me to play the card. Then I actually started to cast it and win games.

Fun with Puppet Conjurer.
That combination has won me several games.

This card is really great fun and the ability to cycle it if he isn't the flavor of my moment is a welcome add-on. Artifact lands really make this guy a pain for the opponent to deal with thanks to the awesome 'comes into play' byline. Honestly, the only thing I would change is give him hexproof or shroud due to the idea of it being in a cloud of glass.

I'd say. in casual games, he is a good finisher in the Time Sieve/Thopter Assembly deck, in each of your infinite turns he'd be 8/9 unblockable.

This guy is an absolute bruiser, especially at common. At least 4 unblockable damage a turn is nothing to scoff at.

I recently put two of these in an Urza Lands/Painlands/Splcer/Artifact deck I've been playing around with, and they instantly started making a noticable difference. The unblockable 4-6 points of damage pretty much every round as a base was good. The Golem type mixed with the various splicers is just icing on the cake. Because even if it's not unblockable, it's gonna almost always have some combination of Splicer given abilities.

Loop two Sharuum the Hegemon in a Master Transmuter to create an inifite/infinite unblockable creature. The best part? If it's dead in hand, just cycle it away.

This effect is activated for every creature, right? Thopter Assembly to give him a +5/+5 and umblockable boost for one turn, 8/9 unblockables are nothing to laugh at. HULK SMASH!

Really like the visual concept of this card. I also have him in an artifact deck and he's definitely an interesting card to work with.

This, plus Cloudstone Curio and 2 Ornithopters / Memnites. You will have infinite +1/+1 counters on a now unblockable creature. If you really want to be naughty, use Silence before the entire shenanigan to ensure they can't stop you.

@MechaKraken
Did you read the first sentence of Cloudstone Curio?
"Whenever a nonartifact permanent"

In all seriousness, I like to toss this guy on a Prototype Portal. It's fun.
