Incubation PodG
Artifact (Uncommon)
Incubation Pod enters the battlefield with three oil counters on it. 4, T, Remove an oil counter from Incubation Pod: create a 3/3 colorless Phyrexian Golem artifact creature token. Activate only as a sorcery. "This one needs to mature a little more."

More Golem creation. Maybe we'll get new Splicers?
The card comes with three oil counters itself, so this is going to be really strong in Limited I bet, the Sorcery speed is annoying but we're talking three 3/3s for one card that cost you only 1 mana to play in the first place.

But it cost 4 to create that 3/3. With the sorcery speed requirement you can't even do this at the end of your opponent's turn.
Still, I agree that this will be strong in limited. If you don't draw anything better, you can always do this, plus the set synergies.
How i feel about competitive players and casual players in EDH: The competitive are german tourists, the casual are italian tourists, both in a italian beach. The italians asking themselves "why are the germans here?" make a legitimate question, the answer is because the beach is beautiful, no matter the country you came from. The italians wanting to ban the germans are dumb, because if the germans pay for their stay and follow the rules like everyone else, they have the right to be in the beach. Hovewer, if the germans started to ask themselves "why are the italians here?"... they would be dumb as hell.
Disregarding concrete toxic/corrupted sinergies for imaginary golem sinergies? Meh

This feels like it could be a very good, grind-them-out win-con for the more controlling limited decks. Play this out turn 1 and let the proliferate value build up, especially if there’s a lot of incidental proliferate on staple common removal spells, draw spells and similar. Then when your oppoenent is low on cards, begin making 3/3s every turn.
Also, this kinda makes me hope there’s a Dismantle variant in the format, one that would let you destroy an opponent’s artifact or creature and steal the oil counters from it.

Really wish Training Grounds wasn't just for creatures...
