So I've been testing with madcap experiments. Least damage I've taken is 1 the most has been 3. I've hit colossus with it multiple times as well. Also if colossus is in hand and u don't have enough artifacts, it usually gets me enough to play it. No real downside to it.
To somewhat corroborate Ninja's assessment of Foundry Inspector, it does feel awfully bad (especially when it happens nearly every time) to drop an Inspector on turn 3 only to have it eat removal EOT. Seems like a Time Walk in your opponent's favor. Would much rather drop a non-creature artifact that reduces the cost of Colossus by more than 1 while also carrying other valuable implications. Just my .02.
Thats why you dont play it turn 3 if u dont have to. play it turn 4 so it can crew cultivator caravan. i never play it turn 3 unless its my only play or i use it as a ploy so they will counter it or remove it before colossus. Btw i play jeskai colossus right now and will start testing on esper colossus.
