Default [CON] Salvage Slasher

Hi! Thanks Zetsy for let me to spoil the next card... I'll edit first post when it becomes solved...

I remember a card... a card that appeared in the first booster I opened!

My card from the past was a zombie with a lot of hunger... now it seems he eat everything... change the zone.

the new card seem touched by a sculptor... a sculptor that can humanize the zombie, but maybe he become something like a thief

Edit: Solved

An artifact zombie that eats the graveyard or steals artifacts in the opponants graveyard? I havent really figured out what the zombie from his past is yet.

Maybe something like:

Salvage Slasher 2B
Artifact creature - Human Rogue
~ gets +1/+0 for each artifact in your graveyard
1/1

EDIT:
Almost correct
Not too shabby for a common. Can get very high power in the right deck. Then fling it to the opponent?

Old set probably a common.

Looks like we still haven't hit the right card yet...

Quote:
now it seems he eat everything
so it doesn't just apply to artifact/creature cards or a limited number of cards any more but to all cards.

... change the zone.
In play -> graveyard? (Send to )Graveyard - > RFG?

Quote:

Pretty much must be Artifact Creature - Human Rogue

Not really. This card would probably be blocked. Which is the thing with it. While it can deal a lot of damage, a 1/1 could kill it.

lord_of_obscurity: I was referring to another member's guess, that it would get "+1/+0 for each card in your graveyard". In the right deck that would pretty much be a new Phyrexian Dreadnaught.

The card as it is solved is more balanced I think, not the best card printed, but far from "the second worst card in the set" as Zesty seems to think (the post where Dapero says that seems deleted now though).

So does it check all graveyards, or just your own? RE and the OP seem to have conflicting info.

It would be better if it counted all cards in graveyard and not artifacts only ^^ .

There´s a huge difference between Dreadnought and Salvage Slasher, you can´t really compare those cards!
If this creature would have trample I might agree with you to some point but in this way its nothing more than a lil better Nim from Mirrodin block.
