Anybody else notice the artist's name? This does seem like something Stewie would own.

This card leads to so many infinite combos.... seriously, too broken.

Ok, so you use your Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas to make this into a 5/5 Artifact creature, then you put down your 4 Training Grounds to reduce the activation cost to 2 mana and once you throw that Pemmin's Aura on it you're golden. only 2 mana for 4 damage? I mean, once you use that high tide, you'll have all the mana that you need. Don't be surprised if you see this combo pop up in all the major Casual Tournaments in your area.

Heh. It's hilarious how appalling this card is. Yet no one ever talks about it.

Because 16 mana to kill a weak creature is worth it. Or 24 to kill two. Or 32 to kill three. Or deal some damage.

Visara the Dreadful or Avatar of Woe are better for killing things, Arc Slogger is a good damage dealer to both creatures and players, Crackleburr is cool, Grim Lavamancer is great, Kamahl, Pit Fighter can work too. Just about anything is better than this.

It allows monogreen to kill most fliers!
Plummet allows monogreen to kill any flier. Well aside from the 6 that have pro green. They aren't major threats anyway (well, except for sphinx of the steel wind which won't die to the ring either)

It allows colorless removal of creatures with up to 4 toughness!
Brittle Effigy will exile any one creature, for less than half the overall mana it takes to cast and use it in the same turn. You really shouldn't need to exile any more than up to 4 creatures anyway.

It puts my opponent on a 5-turn clock in blue control!
There are so many vastly superior ways to put your opponent on a clock in monoblue control. And none of them cost more than half the mana required to activate the ring.


See, there is no reason whatsoever to play this horribly inefficient and bland card blatantly ripped from arabian folklore.

If you want to kill creatures (in a green deck probably), just use Tower of Calamities. It cannot target a player, but for the same mana you deal triple the damage.
