You: I play Precursor Golem and get two 3/3s. Your turn.
Opponent: I play Lightning Bolt (or other cheap 3+ damage dealer)
You: @#$*%

At the moment, this is my favorite card except steel hellkite. It also couples extremely well with Ink-treader nephilim and eldrazi con***ion. Even more potent is, as others have said, rite of replication. you can easily get an army of 45 603/603 annihilator 120 creatures. And that's with just one nephelim, one con***ion, one kicked rite of replication, and one precursor golem.

The text says that spells would be copied for each golem. Searing Blaze only specifies that it targets a creature not a single creature. So the spell is copied 3 times. All 3 golems die and controller takes 9 damage from the 3 Blazes.

Flesh Allergy makes Mr. Precursor have a very bad day. Assuming no other creatures died that turn, it results in 10 life loss on top of the golem loss.

It occurs to me, and I'm not sure if this is the case, but if Precursor Golem is in play... Would, say Zombify be copied to target ALL golems in your graveyard?

I have a question. Can you use artillerize to sac all of your golems and deal that damage with the copies?

Run it with Arc Trail, hitting it with the 1 damage source, letting you throw 2 damage all over the field.Run it with a Comet storm with a cost of 5(with one Multikicker) and get some nice damage out of it based on how many golems you have.
Slaughter Cry gives them all +3/+0 and first strike. There are so many red cards that can run with these, its amazing Im not seeing this guy played more. Think its time i go make a blue red deck with him at the core.

This guy reminds me of Nacatl War-Pride, which seemed like an underutilized card with serious combo potential. I hope the instant/sorcery copying turns out to be abuseable...
This is the least useful guy to copy with Phantasmal Image, though :)

Reading up on rite of replication I had a thought, ghostly flicker.
Hears the play Precursor Golem and two golem tokens, ghostly flicker Precursor Golem and one land the copys target the token and a land. First one resolves second is targeted, Precursor Golem reactivates and recopys ghostly flicker hitting Precursor Golem last on that section when Precursor Golem enters two more tokens
"And then you continue for as long as u want that to go on for"
The main part here is "and just what to make sure that it clears w.o.c." that sense im targeting ONE golem and a land It would work correct

Almost matches Wurmcoil in 1v1. Two golems eat the biggun; 1 eats one of the smaller ones. Not bad for a rare and {1} less.
Seize the Day and anything that grants your creatures vigilance (Consider piety charm) allows one to attack (with just this card) for 36 spread between up to 12 players. Combined with any other buffer you'll win just about any game if/when you do this.
Reconnaissance + Sieze the day will also
Hidden Strings is also neat. Target only one of your golems then tap down their guys and untap your mana with it. The fact he closes games so quickly makes it so he can be one of the few creatures in your deck.
