@Try4se Because most people don't give a rat's ass about the Vintage format, which Mishra's Workshop falls under. Vintage is like an auto win first/second turn if you know anything about MTG, which is why so few play it, and there are cards far superior to this for that purpose.

The brother of Darksteel Colossus? Nay, nay... this is simply what happened when Phyrexia got tired of seeing those damned Platinum Emperions.
Your life total cannot change?
Good, good...

It's not hard to cast. Ignoring bolting it into play with bull (Kuldotha Forgemaster etc.) a myr deck or a everflowing chalice in a proliferate deck can have it in play on turn 7 or so, depending on draw and land.
Oh and then there's time I was archenemy and dropped it turn 1 with Introductions Are In Order. Everyone just scooped.

Land + 2x Lotus Petal + 2x Sol Ring + Tinker + Blightsteel Colossus + Lightning Greaves = T1 win
(land, lotus, sol ring, tinker for blightsteel, lotus, sol ring, lightning greaves)
M.U.R.D.E.R.E.D.

hitting people is too obvious. I just like to slap a lure on it to slowly wipe the boad clear for the lulz

Glad I own this card, otherwise I'd throw out a couple Melira's Keepers onto the field.

Bonus points for using this with the Exalted ability.

Serves as the infected EVA in my Angel (Eldrazi) deck.
Evangelion FTW

So. I have to ask. What happens if you use Trepanation Blade and Blightsteel is the last card in their Library?
Also, what if you had Undead Alchemist out? Would UA's exile go off before Blightsteel's return?

By the time you get this card out you might prefer Darksteel Colossus because your opponent could be really low on life. They can just chump block this, take the trample counters and survive one more attack whereas if they're on low enough life, chump blocking won't work.
