Worst case scenario you need mana now and its a 3 mana rock.
But in a ramp deck, you could have 9 lands, make x three, Worldspine Wurm, next turn.
Best case scenario turn 3 Vorel of the Hull Clade turn 4 this. Turn 6 Worldspine Wurm

Get out your infinite mana combo, play this card... now you have an artifact that taps for as much mana as spare counters you have lying around.

Compare with Gilded Lotus. This needs 6 mana to tap for 2 mana. Gilded lotus only needs 5 mana to tap for 3 mana. This needs 9 mana to get 3 mana. This can only do mono color like gilded lotus.
Okay so unless you have 12 mana when you cast this thing, its always going to be much weaker then gilded lotus.
One edge this has over Gilded Lotus, is that you can cast it for 3 and hit 1 mana. Another edge is you can cast it for 0 and put more counters on it from something else. Coretapper perhaps?

Hi, I'm Everflowing Chalice. You may remember me from such decks as Proliferate or Tezzeret's half of Elspeth vs. Tezzeret. In my upcoming role, I tackle some serious issues as I take on color in Domina. Does the color of your mana determine your social worth? Find out tonight at 11:00 on your local news!

I have a deck that runs Vorel of the Hull Clade, so since I pulled this card I feel like it's an auto-include (even if my chance of using Vorel on this is low).

Got it as a 8th pick in draft, because it's no bomb or removal
It's mana fixing for the draft and I can put it in my casual Artifact deck and replace an Everflowing Chalice with it.

This is probably the worst written card EVER. According to the text It cost a Minimum of 3 manna and comes into play with AT LEAST 3 counter. How in the world did people interpret this card as needing 6 for 3? This card literally make me want to pull a Francis and flip tables.
