Imskir Iron-Eater: Artifacts Fueled Demon
Imskir Iron-Eater stands as a potent artifact focused addition for Modern Horizons 3. This legendary Demon rewards a growing pool of artifacts with cheaper casts, a mechanic that fits well with artifact heavy decks. When it enters the battlefield you draw X cards and you lose X life, where X is half the artifacts you control, rounded down. The interaction invites patient planning and careful timing as you balance card advantage with life total while your board develops.
On the decisive turn it can push through for a strong payoff. The option to pay 3R and sacrifice an artifact to deal damage equal to the sacrificed artifact's mana value to any target adds reach and tempo to the card, especially when your artifact count is climbing. A solid 5/5 body paired with a foil finish makes Imskir a credible threat even after its initial hit, scaling with your artifact economy and providing a persistent threat across your matches.
