This is hilarious. Very sensible no-sac clause.

Note that this draws the game if your opponent has Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite. Or if you have... um... Vibrating Sphere. Yeah, never mind.

Gave him 1 extra toughness to prevent persist shenanigans

Yeah you've got a point. Not sure how to fix that apart from doing some weird wording with him being immune to static effects or having the wording be something like, "When he is put into a graveyard by being dealt lethal damage"

Thankfully, this card will likely never leave the vacuum of this set.

Now cannot leave. I don't think there's anything in the rules about a piece of text like this. This feels like rules lawyer levels of busted in terms of game rules but in terms of power level I can't figure out how to break it.

Worship and can't die to damage? Play multiple because what's the legendary rule gonna do to it? Maybe run an exemplar of strength type aggro deck?

Just thought I'd point out that Darksteel Myr cost {3} for a reason. Also, better than every Skeleton printed in Magic by a country mile.

But otherwise, yeah this is pretty cool.

Well skeletons can be sacrificed and the myr is an uncommon.

This ability has been suggested countless times in custom circles btw. It not so long ago got somewhat of a precedent in MTG with Xenagos Ascendend.

I could maybe see this as a 0/1 with that mana cost.

Might need some comp-ruling for multiplayer games where you're not the last player in the game.

Otherwise; well, black instead of colourless. So maybe? I'd still upcost it a bit personally, but really, is {b}{b} much less problematic than {b} for such an effect? I guess the real issue wiht making this cost only one would be "Well, why would I ever run any other {b} cost creature?" It just erases oto much design space.
