I drafted Scars tonight and I got one of these and a Molten-Tail Masticore. Amazing right? Anyway, I had to give the guy who bought the packs money and I didn't have it on me so he said gimme the emperion or the masticore. ='( Ah well, got the Masticore =D But he was fun in draft.

@Wormfang
Not to burst your bubble, but placing quiet disrepair on him would simply allow you to destroy him during your upkeep. Since your life total can't change, you'll simply stay at your current life total.
As for cost for cards relevant to power and toughness/effects, an 8/8 for 8 colorless is already pretty awesome, his effect's really useful if you have a method of dealing with poison counters. Not that that's always relevant. Destruction is unfortunate, but it's the reason they have so many cards, like turn aside and withstand death to help save him. heck, you could use not of this world. But i digress... the main point was to note that it's generally the x/x for x>1 colorless creatures without drawbacks that make some savage creatures.
See: Cathodion, Su-chi, Wurmcoil Engine, and Darksteel Colossus

i think this is better then the angel because if possible, both are going to die. this leaves you in the same position as when you cast it, even if they attacked. with the angel, you still have to block or it could get removed and you lose because you could be at negative health.

.5/5 because it ruins Channel
LOL JK AMAZING card just gotta get that angel that gives every artifact shroud when you have metalcraft
Also, is it just me: does the art look really similar to Blightsteel Colossus?

Combine this with Leonin Abunas equipped with Darksteel Plate and Darksteel forge for a cool EDH lock.

He's an 8/8 artifact creature for 8 mana. This alone warrants at least a rare rating, but right now he's just kind of obnoxious.

With my buddy Platinum Emperion by my side, I sure love signing Infernal Contracts... ;)
Also, I want this in foil. The artwork is totally awesome.

You know what I hate? How there are so many excellent cards in Scars...that are completely obliterated by god damned Infect.
