More like an enchantment then a creature. But, hypothetically, has the same functionality as one what with aura's and equipment. Don't underestimate this card. Think of how many cards die over the course of a full game. Definitely a psychological card; it makes them think, is it worth chump blocking or trading with this card etc. A little slow as a card for aggressive players, but still outstanding in it's own right. Combo's with removal, morbid, and sac engines/attrition. Good in it's own right as well.
4.5/5

Anyone else reminded of Brauner from Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin?

4x Blood Artist + Wrath = 16 Damage + 16 Life

My only problem with this card is the Power. VAMPIRES SHOULD NOT BE AS "STRONG" AS GOATS DAMMIT!
@DacenOctavio: It's "Blood for the Blood GOD!" dammit! There are no other blood gods! THERE IS ONLY KHORNE!

I run four copies of this guy. I've won games with just one. Token decks think twice against this guy. Removal spells? You're taking out a 0/1 and losing life because of it. Then throw in Killing Wave and watch your opponents scoop. And the best part? He's not even rare. 5/5

With great art comes great suffering.

I hate this guy. This is how it usually goes for me. First someone puts him down. I ignore him. Then he puts down some other stuff, and then finally another Blood Artist . Now I'm looking at 2 damage per death, and if he has a sac outlet... I'm screwed.
Do yourself a favor and kill him right away before he becomes obnoxious.

This makes really short, really un-fun work of most Archenemy games.

Creature type update: This should be Vampire Artist!
That should make four with the Artist type: This along with Dreamscape Artist, Escape Artist and Nin, the Pain Artist.

I love this creature. If you're playing Black and Green together, combo him with Mitotic Slime, Bloodflow Connoisseur, Golgari Germination, and Creakwood Liege for some seriously awesome sac engine damage. If you want to make it a combo you can use each turn, throw in a Gleancrawler. Hell, might as well use Grave Pact to double the amount of creatures that are dying.
EDIT:
I am going to break this card all over again with the upcoming M14 set. This will be best friends with Shadowborn Apostle(S)... no autocard yet, but you can look it up in the spoilers.
