What it does
Banding (Any creatures with banding, and up to one without, can attack in a band. Bands are blocked as a group. If any creatures with banding you control are blocking or being blocked by a creature, you divide that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's being blocked by or is blocking.)
At the beginning of your upkeep, this creature deals 3 damage to you unless you discard a card. If it deals damage to you this way, tap it.

Where it came from
Mishra's War Machine was released in 1994 as part of the Antiquities expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set was designed to explore the lore of the Brothers' War, a cataclysmic conflict between the siblings Urza and Mishra, characterized by the use of massive mechanical constructs and archaeological artifacts unearthed from the world's past.
The card features artwork by Christopher Rush, one of the game's most iconic early illustrators. His design reflects the harsh, industrial aesthetic of the Phyrexians and the Mishra-aligned forces, utilizing a stark, utilitarian style that emphasizes the card's function as a relentless, resource-consuming combat engine. Upon release, it was regarded as a quintessential example of the 'artifact' theme that defined the set's mechanical identity.
