­Hunter's Insight + Diabolic Machine

A creature gets card-link UEOT; and a 4/4 with regenerate - CMC 7.

Guess I'm making a CMC7 artifact critter with card-link.

Mind you, Diabolic Machine wasn't that great even at the time; but interestingly it does seem like the numbers stuck. 4/4 for 7 seems to be a thing; though there's plenty of variation - and most have significantly better upsides.

And... yeah; ok, cardlink on a 4/4 is actually pretty damn awesome. You'll need to combo it with something else to really take advantage - but frankly "Sorcery, {7}, draw 4 cards" is pretty hot.

So let's do that. Creative... Big ass robot beast. Would be nice to get 'howling' in there somewhere; for the howling-mine justification.

I can go for that! Cold-Eyed Selkie but a loott bigger.

BTW, Hunter's Insight is a reprint of a printed card. Not that that changes anything you said.

Heh; as worded - this is non-optional mind you; so you might want to be careful using it.

Didn't know it was a reprint; as you say, doesn't really change anything.

I also wonder why they never extended lifelink to other kinds of link. Not flavourful enough a name, I guess.
