Caerwyn: A slight correction, negative power isn't just something that could happen, it already exists on two black bordered cards and one silver bordered card.
Char-Rumbler- Printed in future sight, whih explains a lot. It was an interesting design, but I'm glad it was left pretty much at this.
Spinal Parasite- Wizards really must have hated sunburst I guess, a strange way to balance a card for sure and Wotc seems to agree based on the complete and utter lack of negative base power we have seen.
Half-Squirrel, Half-- I assume they gave it negative power as a joke.

Be Progenitus
Enchantment - Aura
Enchanted creature has protection from everything. This effect does not remove Be Progenitus.
At the beginning of your upkeep, pay or sacrifice enchanted creature.
You can't even search gatherer for negative power and toughness, but here is the only card (that I know of) with negative power and toughness printed on the card: Spinal Parasite. Make another creature with negative power and toughness printed on the card.

Ferropede Hex Parasite Quarry Hauler Spinal Parasite Thrull Parasite Vampire Hexmage
hex parasite and Vampire hexmage are probably the best ones on this list though

perhaps the sunburst mechanic would be useful like Etched Oracle, Spinal Parasite and Engineered Explosivescould be handy for some utilty... same goes for the converge mechanic with something like Infuse with the Elements.

So can i use a card like Spinal Parasite to take a counter off Mikaeus, therefore triggering his ability without having to tap him. Essentially is tapping him required for it to happen or can it happen just from a counter being removed? Also the i ask is becuase if i can tap him to add a counter and remove a counter to trigger him from other cards, then he becomes powerful. I know their are untap cards but just a sneak attack version of doing it lol. That is.....if that would actually work.

dimmer winner dinner is a deck i built specifically for weird combo of exiling creatures to play them, funny to run across this list right after. Lost Legacy? Harmless Offering fits nicely with an Abyssal Persecutor. Lich's Mirror + Demonic Pact or Immortal Coil ? Phage the Untouchable. Transcendence! Harmless Offering + Midnight Oil + Vampire Hexmage. Spinal Parasite. Spellbook or Stitcher's Graft? I've always wanted to see what kinds of builds are possible with Neurok Transmuter. Is Isochron Scepter too popular/not wild enough for this?
