The Artificer's Game

Judging

Idea - Hueg: First things first, that's a lot of text. Its ability is understandable through the words though. Having this be one mana for all it does... doesn't seem right to me though. Especially as you can currently abuse this ability by searching for 0 mana artifacts with no need for setup except Hueg's summoning sickness. Multiple times. That's gonna be some hella ramp with artifact lands. This one has a neat idea, but it got plenty of kinks that need fixing.

ZephyrPhantom - Smol: an extremely strong alternative to something already in use like By Force. It is needed that you pay for each non-controlled artifact unlike By Force, but still, even giving creatures+treasures in return... A tad too powerful, though flavor is cute.

twintania - Segovian Colossus: cute that it's a 3/3 colossus (for ). Says quite a bit about "Segovians". Something that is at its cheapest a 3/3 wall is already quite good. But I don't think that would actually be what it would be used most for. Probably moreso a janky combo piece with its untapping.

lordpat - Corpse Carrier: A neat, black identifying card that is reminiscent of Bomat Courier (which is probably your inspiration). Very nice.

vizionarius -  Slumbering Boulders: Huh, that's actually a good idea for kind of suspending it. Yeah, this is a cool artifact land creature.


I'll give the win to lordpat with vizionarius as close second.

What do you mean a "unique ability"?

That’s a bit vague still (you didn’t really give any concrete motion of unique here), but alright.

What's the purpose of having artifacts be lands in hand? I presume you still would need to pay mana costs of artifact spells? Landfall still would trigger even if they are not lands in your hand.

*The enchantment returns as an enchantment when it leaves from the battlefield. 

Not green :/

Edit: Changed granting indestructible to +1/+1. Indestructible felt too powerful for the little pebbles.

BTW: twintania , I really like your card; I think that's a really clever design.

Just had a funny idea and then I remembered that this challenge was still around.



Moonstruck Automation
Artifact Creature - Construct
Graft 1 (This creature enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it. Whenever another creature enters the battlefield, you may move a +1/+1 counter from this creature onto it.)
Moonstruck Automation enters the battlefield with two additional +1/+1 counters for each mulligan you took at the beginning of the game.
0/0

I think the game tracks pretty much anything you do as long as the rules cover it. You might be right about tracking issues. Then again I think someone playing this should know to pay attention to this. I also guess there is a reason Control Win Condition has that reminder... Thanks for the thought; for now I'll keep it black bordered.
I actually have a friend who during prereleases allways notes on his life sheet which player started the game and how many mulligans where taken by both players.

Petrified Forester
Enchantment Artifact Creature - Treefolk
Enchantments you control are artifacts in addition to their other types.
Artifacts you control are enchantments in addition to their other types.
4/6

This effect could certainly be blue but I kind of feel like the intersection of enchantments and artifacts makes sense in green.

Sorry, been super super busy, presenting my thesis next week. Flo00 wins, Idon't love the card itself but the mechanic is super cool. Solid entries all around.

Thanks for the win lordpat. Good luck with the presentation! As soon as you have some time on your hands, I'd be interested in a more detailed feedback.

Next challenge: Give me a colorless artifact that is usefull if you play some color and more useful if you play some more color(s).
Think scarecrows, Bladecoil Serpent or Obelisk of Alara.

Judging maybe on Saturday. And if not, then hopefully on Wednesday. More entries are welcome!
