This must be the early days of the sunburst keywords.

Well, it´s Multikicker and Sunburst together.

Couldn't the rules text be errata'd to "Kicker 5" followed by "Sunburst - For each color of mana used to pay ~'s kicker cost it gets a +1/+1 counter." or somesuch?

No, because for this card, you only need to pay as much mana as you have colours available.

I'd rather have this than Suntouched Myr, but the other Sunburst cards actually bring something interesting to the table other than just color = P/T, and there are easier ways to pump something.

2 colorless for a 1/2 isn't bad, plus he's got options. Not exactly a powerhouse but he's not terrible.
2 for a 1/2, 3 for 2/3, 4 for 3/4, 5 for 4/5, 6 for 5/6, 7 for 6/7 - if it was a colorless kicker they just capped at five he'd actually be pretty sweet.

Myr galvanizer infinite mana use!

Ninjakraken: You can't spend the colourless mana on the kicker. Using the infinite mana myr trick for that would be utterly pointless.

Functionally very similar to Lunar Avenger, though better at every time you don't have all 5 colors of mana.

@Count_Dorku:
Most mana myrs produce coloured mana.

Kinda interesting with proliferate. Even then, I'd rather play Clockwork Beetle.

Kicker - Sunburst.

I can dig it. For W2 you get a 2/3, WU2 3/4, etc. so it Scales pretty well, capping at 6/7 for WUBRG2. Not great, but the flexibility is well worth it.

I definitely like this thing. Flexibility rules.

I thought "Hey, why's this guy rated so low? He's almost as good as Chimeric Mass!" Then I say the whole mana of different colors thing.

He's not... bad. If you pay any colored mana for him, he enters as a 2/3 for 3. Not good, but not bad.
