There totally needs to be a "Premium Deck Series: Arcbound Affinity" with these guys, Disciple of the Vault, and other favorites.

this little critter had so much power, it wasn't even funny. if you haven't used one of these in an affinity deck, you haven't lived. there's a reason why it's cousin set is called "scars of mirrodin" lol

It's only broken in context. In an environment without any other Mirrodin cards and probably no Esper cards either, it would not be anything near as good. With even just Mirrodin-block though, ...hoo boy.

Looks like the ban on Arcbound Ravagers was in-universe as well. There's no way the Mirrans would have lost the war with those things.

@ 18scsc:
"person 1: i sacrifice all 89 of my aartafect tokens youre gona die. Person 2: oh yah vampire hex mage.
srsly do this card rocks"
In response , person 1 sacs it to itself and put the counters onto his remaining arcbound worker. Honestly, if you're saying that, you don't understand the card. The one of the most powerful aspects of this card is that word modular. You just leave a single artifact creature open in case of removal. And even counter removal doesn't work because it can sac itself in response.
So yeah, "srsly do this card rocks".

Throne of Geth would be very nice in a Modular deck.

Joshua, put it this way, this thing was SO GOD DAMN POWERFUL, they were scared to put it in FTV: Exiled, which also had Balance, Berserk, and Tinker.
And they were scared to put it in FTV: Relics, next to Memory Jar, Nevinyrral's Disk, and Isochron Scepter.
They DID give Skullclamp and Aether Vial a FTV treatment, but NOT Arcbound Ravager and Disciple of the Vault. Because those guys are just scary, and should not be reprinted. In the context of the existence of 'card type-artifact' in the game, those two are the most horrifying dudes you can face across the table. except Basic Island, Go.
all joking aside though, seriously- Ravager's LEGIT.

The card itself was only broken because of all the other broken Mirrodin cards: anyone remember Skullclamp? Disciple of the Vault? The artifact lands? They all combined with the Ravager to make something awful.
