Introducing 2 mechanics specifically made for Artifact creatures:
Reforge:
This is attached to a quite costly creature and allows for a mana dump to boost it using +1/+1 counters. The effect would only be as good as the mana you use at the time and wouldn't be cumulative. This can come over as a mix of Awaken and Monstrosity keywords made specifically for Artifact creatures.
Retroforge:
This is intended to cast a creature that is good in it's own right, but then give you an option to lose the keywords by sacrificing the creature to give a counter based boost to another artifact creature.
There's a good chance they both suck as it's my first real try but let me know what you think!
Sorry, but none of these cards link to @Faiths_Guide's mechanics, making them both invalid
Impart [Cost] (When this creature dies, you may pay its impart cost. If you do, target creature gains all activated abilities of this creature.)
Next three:
@liftinggravity (Edited slightly, it does the same thing.)
Legacy {n} (When this creature leaves the battlefield, create {n} tokens that are copies of it, except they don't have this ability.)
My mechanic I made for @ningyounk's Trabadart contest. (Edited in response to criticism.)
Blackmail (Whenever this creature attacks, you may gain control of another target creature until end of your next turn.)
@Tomigon's
Apparate [Cost] ([Cost], {t}: Shuffle this creature into its owner's library. Then draw a card.)
@KJMartin Why did WoTC stop making downside mechanics?
Using @IanLowenthal's Blackmail
Next Mechanics:
Pillage X - When this creature deals combat damage to a player, exile the top X cards of their library. You may cast those cards until end of turn, you may spend mana as though it were mana of any color to cast them.

Cowardly. (Whenever an opponent casts a spell, tap this creature. If one or more spells were cast last turn, this creature doesn't untap during your untap step.)
by @me
Rouse (Whenever you or a creature you control is dealt damage, untap [CARDNAME])
