This should have been called "Darksteel Goggles".

Run with Tezz, a 5/5 thats indestructible when all you're spending to get him is some loyalty and a card draw. I like this because it's free to cast. If it was even 1 mana it would not be worth half as much as it is.

Plays 'well' with:
Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas - makes a 5/5 ind. as soon as he drops. There are better choices though.
Tinker - But then again, so do all artifacts.
Phylactery Lich - I'd rather use DarkSteel Axe, but at least this alllows a T1 combo with Dark Ritual.
Knowledge Pool - Probably the only deck that could be competetive that I'd choose this card above others.
The main problem with this card outside of standard, is that in basically every case, Darksteel Citadel is the better choice by far.

Tinker-bait
combos with recycle
good target for infinite mana loop artifact destruction spell to fire up storm cards
Master transmuter-bait... this card rocks on so many levels. Now WoTC needs to print a 1/1 colorless creature with auto-pacifism and indestructability.

Some of the best art in the set.
Some of the best text in the set.
Some of the best design in the set.
Looooove this card.

I don't like double posting, but something came to my attention. Everyone is flaming hard on this card, let me beat some sense into you.
This card IS NOT WORTHLESS~! Every time I see a comment saying it is, I facepalm. My soul dies a bit on the inside. You get the point. So, what can you do with it?
Some of the already-stated ones:
Metalcraft trigger
Tinker
Affinity
Tezzeret animation
Phylactery Lich
Other uses:
Archbound Ravager? Yes, please.
Atog Bait
Phyrexian Negator (Not like anyone will use him anymore with Obliterator release)
Reprocess
Salvage Titan
You get the point. There are many cards that synergize with this card. Admitably, there are uncommons I would rather see in limited, but outside of limited, I understand the uncommon slot. If it had no indestructablility, I would agree that it is a total piece of garbage. But it has indestructablity. So quit your flaming and trolling. It got old 50 comments ago.

Tezzeret loves this card! UB Tezz deck is going to rock even harder now.

we figured out what the flavour text of Null Rod was about
It doesn't do anything
no, it does nothing
