sooooooooooooooo good in sharuum the hegemon EDH

I play it with Arcbound Ravager for a lot of fun with all my arcbounds, I just wish he started off with a little more..

The fact that the artifacts go to the top of your library instead of, say, your hand, limits this a bit, but if it worked any other way, it could get easily broken. This makes you reclaim only the cards you really need, and basically just turns your graveyard into an extension of your deck. Would be a 5/5 if it came with 3 counters.

I have won games with this simply because people cannot get rid of this and skeleton shard.

With both of them you simply get all the cards you need back,

I would use him if he put it in your hand, even if he costed 5. But as it is, its just not worth it, I would honestly rather draw something els than what just died.

Hey guys, how about this:

Step 1: Have Bloodstained Altar in play.

Step 2: Have some arcbound creatures in play, with one of these in the graveyard and one in play.

Profit.

great with cards that let you play things off the top of your deck such as Thrumming stone combine that with Throne of Geth and Dross Scorpion and you have the begining of a nice engine.

Now I want an arcbound deck with this and ravager combo as the centerpieces. Add Krark Clan Ironworks and a Worker for infinite counters then fling your ravager for game.

Throne of Geth, *cough cough*.

I actually think that the "top of your library" part could potentially make this interesting in a Skill Borrower based deck, with something like Steel Overseer in the graveyard. Remove a +1/+1 counter from your Arcbound Reclaimer, put the Steel Overseer on top of your library, use Skill Borrower to add the lost counter back onto your Arcbound Reclaimer (while adding counters to the rest of your artifact creatures) and allow for another graveyard recursion. Makes your Steel Overseer nigh invincible, and allows you to use his ability even if it's right after he's been destroyed.

Fun stuff.

I use this in my Counterbalance deck alongside Academy ruins and artifact sacrificing cards like Krark-Clan Ironworks , it works very well !
