Furnace Skullbomb is a zero-mana artifact that replaces itself and puts a card in the graveyard — the draw-a-card mode costs one red mana and sacrificing it, making it a free enabler for artifact-count synergies and graveyard strategies. It's narrow but free, and free artifacts that cantrip have a real home in the right shell.

In Commander, Furnace Skullbomb earns its slot specifically in artifact-sacrifice decks — commanders like Daretti, Scrap Savant or Breya, Etherium Shaper want zero-cost artifacts that also cycle through the deck. In Pauper, it sees occasional fringe play in Affinity shells where artifact count matters more than the card's individual power. Modern and Legacy have long outgrown it — better zero-cost cantrips exist at every turn. Outside of dedicated artifact synergy, Furnace Skullbomb is a draft-chaff card in any format.

$0.16 bulk tier
At $0.16, Furnace Skullbomb is deep bulk — you're buying a playset for less than a dollar. It won't hold or gain value, but it doesn't need to; you run it because it's free, not because it's scarce.
