Imskir Iron-Eater Artifact Appetite Unleashed
Imskir Iron-Eater stands as a heavy hitter designed for artifact heavy boards. The mana cost of {6}{B}{B} is steep, yet its Affinity for artifacts reduces the price for each artifact you control, letting you land a 5/5 Demon earlier than you might expect. In practice this card rewards artifact based decks by turning your relic collection into immediate battlefield presence and steady inevitability.
When Imskir Iron-Eater enters the battlefield you draw X cards and you lose X life, where X is half the number of artifacts you control, rounded down. The traded value can be worthwhile in the right stack, especially when you are already amassing artifacts. The activated ability for {3}{R} to Sacrifice an artifact lets Imskir deal damage equal to the sacrificed artifact mana value to any target, providing a flexible exit ramp or reach option that scales with your artifact setup.
