I got a lot of use out of these in a scars draft. most decks I saw used either art creatures or art mana sources, so there was pretty much always something to put it on. Outside of block/drafting its use drops off.

@ fencediddy - The enchantment will stay on, but I'm not sure the affect will still work.

Put it on Urza's Contact Lenses and you can have infinite poison counters. Now you need something to use them as fuel.

Sideboard it.

There's a guy in my playgroup who has this ridiculous artifact combo that involves Sol Ring, Voltaic Key, Candelabra of Tawnos, and on top of that he's got a Time Walk that creates an infinite loop of turns as he keeps fishing it out of his graveyard and playing it again. This goes well on that Voltaic Key.
Other than being part of the effort to stymie a combo like that, this just does too little.

Seems like a new version of Artifact Possesion with less clunky wording...that said it can work really well in limited if you're running infect. I just wish it could hit a more common permanent such as creatures.

@ fencediddy
It falls off, you aren't enchanting a legal target (Artifact) anymore, the "Enchant Artifact" is always present and if its failed to be met, Relic Putrescence falls off.
Look at Demonic Appetite's ruling under details

I could see this being an interesting answer for Mono Black Infect to use against something like Signal Pest when against Tempered Steel, however I imagine standard removal would do a better job.

Rust Tick or Tumble Magnet can make the enchanted artifact tap and force a poison counter
