Artifact creatures you control get +2/+0. When Borg Queen enters, assimilate target creature card from an opponent's graveyard. (Put it onto the battlefield under your control with a +1/+1 counter. It's a Borg artifact creature and loses all other creature types.)

Affinity and Reanimator demand cheaper, more reliable payoffs; Borg Queen neither advances an immediate combo nor guarantees value when reanimated.

Band speculativeConfidence 68%

Could be wrong if A metagame rich in creature graveyards could make it a narrow reanimation target, though Atraxa is a far stronger benchmark.

Legacy 17 Eng.FUsr.

Even fast mana or Reanimate cannot fix its dependence on an opposing creature card, while Karakas and cheap removal punish this legendary six-drop.

Band speculativeConfidence 74%

Could be wrong if A specialized Reanimator sideboard plan could exploit creature-heavy fair matchups more effectively than expected.

Pauper Eng.NLUsr.
Commander 50 Eng.CUsr.

Multiplayer makes an opposing graveyard target likely, yielding a sizable stolen threat and a useful artifact-creature anthem, but six mana and no protection limit breadth.

Could be wrong if Its adoption rises if Borg or artifact-creature density is substantial; it falls if better recursion and anthem options dominate.

Limited 79 Eng.A-Usr.

With any opposing creature dead, this is a six-mana 3/4 plus a stolen creature enlarged by both counters and the anthem—a major board swing.

Best home Artifact-creature deckBand first-pickConfidence 43%

Could be wrong if Unknown speed, removal, artifact density, and whether creature trades reliably stock opposing graveyards limit confidence.

Artifact lord reanimator

“A conditional six-mana theft-and-artifact-lord payoff, strong in creature-heavy Limited and niche Commander artifact decks but slow for 60-card play.”

AI prediction made before release — not a measured result. Real performance data replaces this once the set is legal and tournament results come in.
