I see very little use for this outside of a Worldslayer deck or a myr deck. In the current environment, it's way too easy to kill an indestructible creature this small, but in non-standard formats, once infect stops being played much, this is going to be one heck of an annoying wall. I guess that could be said in its favor.

Low cost indestructible creature. Makes the built-in-effect more accessible. Would have loved for it to have more P/T, but who wouldn't.

Why is this rated lower than sentinel? I mean I understand situational drawbacks, especially with how big infect is right now, but in non-standard formats it seems decent enough.

I use this with my Myr Galvanizer Prototype Portal combo. I works perfectly. Sure, it can be infected, but that's why I have a substitute to all of my indestructible cards in my sideboard.

Could be a bit better, but in any case, the ultimate chump blocker. Whta coul be more annoying than not being able to hit your opponent with you evil little 45/45 deathtouch first strike just because your opponent hase a 0/1 out?

A cheap repeatable target for Hoard-Smelter Dragon?

Darksteel myr + 4 Myr galvanizers = a 4/5 indestructible. Having at least 1 myr reservoir on the field can get you any galvanizers you lose due to removal or combat. This card is a lot better than people give it credit for, at least in my myr deck it is.

According to Mark Rosewater, this was supposed to cost only 1!
