About Nettlecyst
Nettlecyst, Artifact — equipment, designed by Vincent Proce first released in May 2021 in the set Modern Horizons 2 and was printed exactly in 8 different ways. It see play in 4 formats: Vintage, Commander, Modern and Legacy. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 1.66.
A deck that focuses on artifacts and enchantments would benefit from including Nettlecyst, as it can boost the equipped creature's power based on the number of artifacts and enchantments controlled. However, there may be better options available depending on the specific strategy of the deck, such as Cranial Plating for a more aggressive approach or Sword of Feast and Famine for additional utility. Whether Nettlecyst sees play would depend on the overall synergy and power level of the deck in question.

Rules
06/18/2021
If a permanent you control is both an artifact and an enchantment, count it only once when determining the bonus from an equipped Nettlecyst.
06/18/2021
If the living weapon trigger causes two Phyrexian Germs to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), the Equipment becomes attached to one of them. The other will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist, unless another effect raises its toughness above 0.
06/18/2021
If the Phyrexian Germ token is destroyed, the Equipment remains on the battlefield as with any other Equipment.
06/18/2021
Like other Equipment, each Equipment with living weapon has an equip cost. You can pay this cost to attach an Equipment to another creature you control. Once the Phyrexian Germ token is no longer equipped, it will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist, unless another effect raises its toughness above 0.
06/18/2021
The living weapon ability has been updated so that the triggered ability creates Phyrexian Germ tokens rather than Germ tokens. This update applies to all cards with living weapon.
06/18/2021
The Phyrexian Germ token enters the battlefield as a 0/0 creature and the Equipment becomes attached to it before state-based actions would cause the token to die. Abilities that trigger as the token enters the battlefield see that a 0/0 creature entered the battlefield.
