Scars of Mirrodin is going to have a Darksteel Axe, it'll most likely be some Bonesplitter variant judging from the art. Look forward to it.
This guy is still pretty amazing right now, and the flavor is great. It's difficult for monoblack to include him for lack of decent artifacts to stick his soul or whatever in, but I'm sure that'll change with Scars, I really can't wait for retarded awesome toys to flood into standard.

I got a question. If Phylactery Lich gets Act of Treason placed on it and that person has no artifacts would Lich instantly be sacked?

Yes Soldead, that is how we played it. I played Mind Control on the Lich and as I had no control of any phylactery counters because of no artifacts in play the Lich was sacrificed.

@borgiey: What? I see no purpose to doing that.

I guess scars is going to have crazy artifact destruction because this guy seems a little too powerful to me...

I'm getting hot and sweaty just looking at this guy... Add in the potential for turn one this + Dark Ritual + Ornithopter, and my pants just got a little tighter.

It's a shame he gets totally nerfed by Infect and Revoke Existence. Still, having multiple Liches with counters on different artifacts makes him tricky to deal with.

I'm seeing a lot of exiling come this way...

Better yet, yank the bastard away with Act Of Treason, beat them over the head with it, then play Bone Splinters, chuck Phylactery and destroy another one of his creatures. All that for 4 mana.

@ Arachibutyrophobia Because he costs BlackBlackBlack and needs an artifact to precede him on earlier turns, making him impossible to throw into just any old deck -- you need to build around him, and in a monoblack deck with artifacts, to boot. Recall that most artifact support is in blue.

He could have been mythic, but I am very glad he is not. It shows that wizards has some decency to throw budget players a bone now and then.
