Patchwork Automaton
2
Ward 2
1/1
Whenever you cast an artifact spell, put a +1/+1 counter on this.

Workshop, this, a few moxen and a sphere is rather great right? Not to mention counter interactions. Or has MUD just completely died?

To the best of my knowledge it sees some fringe play. It is very disappointing to topdeck late bit exceptional in the early game.

@serracollector It's a house in Standard, but I think Traxos just does what this wants to do but better. Yes, this has ward 2, but it doesn't have trample or "vigilance", requires 6 artifacts cast to be the same power of Traxos, and a Force of Vigor really still handles both since getting 2 mana available behind a FoV is small fries in Vintage.
