Rust Elemental, Artifact creature — elemental, designed by Arnie Swekel first released in Oct, 2003 in the set Mirrodin. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.
A deck that focuses on sacrificing artifacts for value, such as an artifact-based sacrifice deck or an artifact recursion strategy, would benefit from including Rust Elemental. While it provides a powerful flying threat, its upkeep ability can be a drawback if not managed properly. Other cards like Wurmcoil Engine or Myr Battlesphere may offer more consistent value in artifact-based decks, making Rust Elemental a situational inclusion that could see play in specific strategies aiming to capitalize on its unique ability.

Sacrificing an artifact isn’t optional. If you control an artifact other than Rust Elemental, you must sacrifice it. Otherwise, you must tap Rust Elemental and lose 4 life.
