This is my first attempt at a Magic card for a bit, would it be considered broken? What can I do to improve it?

[Zanbaku]

I did consider taking the "lose 3 life" part out, but I wasn't sure if I should or not. This idea I had behind this thing was that it'd be a draw engine at a cost, but it seems to be less effective than I thought it'd be. Would there be any way to make it a little better?

Artifacts always have had a double-edged sword  to them, this one just needs a bit more forward damage. It would be better if you could say, rearange the top of your library, or scry so that would be one way you could change it to make the draw more beneficial. also, maybe make it interact with the number of charge counters on it. some thing like this? Sorry if I strayed from your original idea.

That's actually pretty good. It's kinda like what I was going for, but it's also got the Scry. Thanks for that, you made it better than I could have x3

How in the world do you guys gety your cards to look like that?

Ok. Thanks

I think this card can gain some significant power simply by raising the detonation cap by 2 to 3 counters.

This way you can actually go for playing multiple and comboing them up a bit by drawing more cards in

one turn and still skipping only 1 draw step...

Could go nicely in a control deck since you get your next card in advance, which might give you the counter

you require. However this only makes sense if there is some way of regaining the card lost by drawing

Ticking Clock in the deck in the first place instead of some other card possibly more valuable.

 

I see a few combo possibilities as well... possibly with Hex Parasite!? http://magiccards.info/nph/en/137.html

Endless possibilities.... if you manage to compensate for the missed card that is...
