I have a Myr deck, and can assure you that this card is the centerpiece and is indeed amazing. Anything less than four in the deck would be madness. Combine with March of the Machinesfor even more fun. Probably the best Myr card.

Combo this with Mana Echoes for infinite myrs, as long as you have 5 myrs on the field. Also gives you infinite mana to use if you want.

Card of the Day - Wednesday, June 09, 2004
Called Gnome Maker in design (one guess why), the original version gave all Gnomes +1/+1 and made them indestructible.

Looks like Scars of Mirrodin will give Myr Tribal a huge boost, with lots of great new Myr, and tribal support like Myr Reservoir. It's not all good news for the Matrix, however, as the new cards includes a cheaper new Myr Lord (Myr Galvanizer) with a great second ability, a 3-mana enchantment which gives all Artifact Creatures you controll +2/+2 (Tempered Steel), and a cheap Myr-maker (Myrsmith). The Matrix may just be overpriced for the new Myr Tribal.

I'm not entirely sure why the reminder text for indestructibility on this card mentions that lethal damage won't destroy it. (Compare to Indestructibility, which admittedly came a while after establishing indestructibility as an ability.) March of the Machines, perhaps? Otherwise, how is a noncreature artifact supposed to receive lethal damage?

Great card...
Boosts my Myr a bit untill I can play my Darksteel Forge and/or the Inf mana combo I incorporated (at least two Galvanizers, a Palladium and perhaps some coloured mana Myrs for specific mana needs) and/or my Myr Battlesphere (with two Galvanizers you can really rack up the damage by tapping, untapping and then tapping Myr (-tokens)...

God i love my cute and cuddly Myr... :P

I think it would be cool if this ever got Oracle text making it a Myr tribal artifact, but I guess that's never going to happen considering Myr Reservoir didn't get that typing.

My only problem with Myr is the lack of anti-air support.

Combo with Tolarian academy or mana echos (Or both) for more mana than you will ever know how to use.

Awesome card for the Myr, and great incorporation of the indestructible mechanic.

What is the (myr) Matrix?
Seriously, myr galvanizer is neo, ichorclaw myr is any agent and so is plague myr, myr reservoir is zion, myr squire is morpheus, myr propagator is agent smith, mana myr are the humans in the matrix, and myrsmith is the architect! Any comments?

a very fun dump for all the infinite mana combos with the myr. Not the best, but very fun.

@SpencerDub: March of the Machines was printed in the same block, so It's definitely not a far-fetched theory. Affinity aside, a 5/5 indestructible creature for 5 mana that continually produces 2/2 creatures at instant speed was pretty darn good in casual.

An indestructible tribal poly artifact Myr Hive...
Flavorful!

I'm sorry, but don't most Myr only cost {2}? Maybe if they dropped indestructible and did "{2}{T} Put a 1/1 Colorless Myr Token into play." this would see some play.

The Hive done right. It only took them ten years...

Putting this in a Myr deck with two Myr Galvanizers and Palladium Myr makes for a nice infinite combo.
(The combo is much better by putting the Urza's Lands trio and Myr Turbine in.)

Decent casual card. Gives you an indestructible tribal buff for 5 mana.
