Great card to have in a mana-screwing deck. Turn 2, this, turn 3, turn an opponent's land into an artifact and Manic Vandal it, and they'd be down to 1 or 2 lands.

Viashino Heretic = {1}{R}, {T} Your permanents are on fire
March of the Machines = {T} Your lands are suddenly disappering
Splinter = {T} A great way to ensure you'll never play magic with that person again.

I've found LC most useful as a support card/subtheme. Like you can add a liquimetal to a red Eldrazi deck and add in things like Manic Vandal, and go with Lightning Bolt AND Galvanic Blast for fun.

I've also seen a deck that used this to coat Indomitable Archangel for laughs.

I have this picture in my head of manic vandal, oxidda scrapmelter, and hoard-smelter dragon all standing around what looks like an M&M dispenser.

Melts in your mouth, not in your hand... claw... talon...

Finally, Red knows how to kill enchantments: by dipping them in liquid-metal.

As a part-time Johnny, full-time Vorthos and almost-never Spike, my definition of a card's usefulness is based not around the power of its stats or its efficiency in getting card advantage, but rather on its abiility to contribute to some sort of plan or purpose. Therefore, while I can't claim this is the most powerful card in the set (by itself it does nothing, and a deck designed to use it with a bunch of Naturalizes has a bunch of dead cards if it fails to draw a copy - you'll notice that despite its low potency, it cannot be fetched with Trinket Mage and that was almost certainly deliberate), it is almost unuqestionably one of the most useful. As I work on my project of building 36 decks using cards from only this set, trying to make them as different as possible, this card pops up again and again. It can do little tiny tricks like getting you faster metalcraft or sacking a basic land to Ferrovore, or it can make immense plays like the nightmarish Splinter combo an... (see all)

@Mode: only Splinter becomes an awesome basic-land hoser: Echoing Ruin only destroys artifacts that share a name with target artifact, so it is an awesome hoser.. of one land (or up to four if you're running four of this bad boy)

Hey look! An extremely broken artifact! We ARE on Mirrodin! And if you want more then 4, look no further then its broken friends: Prototype Portal and Mirrorworks! And if that's not enough we have Shattering Spree or Shatterstorm and now (in the same block even) Creeping Corrosion! I'm making a {U}{R}{G} deck based around this.

Possibly one of the best removal in the game.

This + Shatter + Naturalize + Viridian Corrupter + Hoard-Smelter Dragon. I'm sure there are others that can be used in this way as well.

All you have to do is turn anything you want to get rid of on your opponents side into an artifact with this, then destroy that artifact. A very aggressive, deny land and mass removal card if used correctly.

This will combo really well with the new Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas.

Liquimetal Coating on Plague Stinger. Tezzeret's -1. 5/5 flying infect creature for the rest of the game.

@ Mode: Unfortunately, Echoing Ruin doesn't work as a basic land hoser with Liquimetal Coating. Since Ruin says "Destroy target artifact and all other artifacts with the same name as target artifact." Unless you find a way to turn all of the basic lands you're trying to destroy into artifacts, Ruin will blow up one then scan the board for other artifacts named "Swamp" or whatever, find none, and resolve.

However, putting Revoke Existence or even just a Shatter on Isochron Scepter with a coating or two on the field (or imprinted on Prototype Portal) gives you a nightmarish version of Vindicate every turn until they deal with the scepter. Which will be difficult when you're exiling a land every turn.

In the sense that "broken" is a card that requires you to play it, or else you're hopelessly outmatched by everyone else who's playing it, the Coating/Shat... (see all)
