This one could start seeing real play next summer when baneslayer (probably) rotates out of standard.

Illusionist's Bracers as even though you can only activate it once per turn it says nothing about not being able to copy the ability. Hit two player's boards with one hellkite?

Opened 2 of these out of the 6 packs in my prerelease main. Top 8'ed easily, clearing boards along the way. Got 2 more opening some boxes so my playset is probably going to be made unblockable somehow. If you can make him connect once you can remove the biggest threat or the only thing that can block him, then he's unstoppable. If he was red, he'd say all creatures. Since he's an artifact, it's permanents. Once you start killing creatures but accidentally cause some collateral damage of planeswalkers, artifacts, or enchantments you realize how good this guy really is. His versatility will wreck any deck that plays permanents.

I like that, in the same set, I can use a dragon and a wurm (Wurmcoil Engine) for finishers in a blue artifact deck.

This dragon really hates token creatures.

I think this guy is pretty severely underrated right now. Yes, he can be removed like most every other creature, and yes being an artifact makes him more susceptible. But he's 5/5 flier with (bad) firebreathing for 6 COLORLESS. That means green flies now. He's a finisher for any deck that needs a finisher. And boy is he a finisher. Not only is there a 5+ clock, but in a few turns he can wipe the opponent's board. Black can remove enchantments and artifacts. You know you'll have at least six mana when you untap with him in play so first you take out his best permanent (or two or three) then you start crushing everything they drop.

Plungingforward:
Learn2Magic. If a permanent (or any card) does not have a specified casting cost, it is assumed that said permanent or card's casting cost is {0}.

This guy breathes colorless and drops Ratchet Bombs as he flies over your opponent's creatures to hit him. Expensive, vulnerable due to being a flying artifact creature, but deadly if it stays in play long. Amazing in sealed, situationally useful in constructed.
@Minus Prime: Triskelion is only 4/4 but hardly vanilla and has been around forever. I guess in the middle creatures did get weak for a while though.
