­Golden Urn + Anti-Summoner Vestiments

A fairly crappy life gain artifact (semi-useful if you've got a way to redistribute counters; though even then Energy Chamber is probably better)

And... equipment that makes casting a creature lifesteal and also lets you Unsummon to Raise Dead. Ouch. At least it costs a lot.

Whelp, makin an artifact.

Ok, so now I'm mashin in a Dragon Whelp?

Anyway. Life gain, accumulating charge, damage opponents, unsummon, raise dead. Lots of different bits here.

An artifact that charges up for life-steal instead of life-gain is quite tempting. Or maybe charge up from gaining or losing creatures?

Yeah, those work. Potentially this goes very fast; so make it an artifact creature and sorcery speed restriction to give opponents a chance to stop it short.

Seems fairly rare to me. And feels like there should be a companion card; maybe something with "Sacrifice an artifact with more than n counters..." on it.

Very interesting! Half of it you can get without the charge-and-sac part, with something like Blood Artist, but getting both halves on one card is pretty potent, so the sorcery-speed delay makes sense.
