mrlozano Contraptions are assembled into one of three sprockets. Your crank counter moves to the next sprocket during your upkeep, which then cranks each contraption in that sprocket, so each contraption normally triggers once every third turn. Otherwise, your criticism was pretty spot on. "That key looks mighty interesting. I'd love to take a closer look. The name's Kaya, by the way." She looks at the key, the excitement in her eyes betraying the calmness of her words.Quicksilver Key: This looks alright, I don't really see anything wrong with it.

There are a total of 14 white cards with Scry, and all of them are either multicolored or instants (with the mild exception of Senate Griffin, which can be considered monowhite if you squint).

Artifact
Whenever an artifact enters the battlefield under your control you may put a charge counter on it.
Remove three charge counter from artifacts you control: Reveal cards of the top of your library until you reveal an artifact card. Put that card onto the battlefield and the rest in the bottom of your library in any order.
Magnetic fields always work the same way. Metal calls metal.

After looking through the its of metal and wires a little bit more, she stands. "You don't seem to have what I'm looking for, though I think we'll be doing business again in the future." And with that, she walks away.Display of Machinery: This is something that would need to be playtested thoroughly, as it's kinda hard to tell the power level of the card. It's definitely a rare. Also, as written, it puts a charge counter on itself when it enters the battlefield. Not sure if that's intentional or not. On a much less functional note, artifacts are objects, so the name should be a noun (possibly with descriptors). Your card's name is a verb (with a descriptor), which is an absolute flavor fail, and has me uncomfortable rating this higher than 6/10

I watched as he pulled out the cards. "Uh, no. Sometimes I forget I speak with a dialect. I mean a pack of cigarettes." I said, taking out a flask, unscrewing it, and taking a sip. "As you can tell, I'm a fan of my vices." I said, placing the flask into my coat again and pulling out some coins - one side of them had a symbol that looked like a pistol, and the other was an image of a proud looking cat. Very intricate. "I've got some dough for it. Er, gold. Dialect again." I said, reminding myself to go back to Nore at some point to speak easy at a speakeasy.Intricate Coin Artifact - Clue Sacrifice ~: Add one mana of any color. , sacrifice ~: Draw a card.

Confused Merchant: This feels more . I don't think it's absolutely a bend, but a 2 mana 2/2 in that returns any card to your hand, even if random (which is more than anything) feels pretty wack. 6/10.

I watched as he pulled out the cards. "Uh, no. Sometimes I forget I speak with a dialect. I mean a pack of cigarettes." I said, taking out a flask, unscrewing it, and taking a sip. "As you can tell, I'm a fan of my vices." I said, placing the flask into my coat again and pulling out some coins - one side of them had a symbol that looked like a pistol, and the other was an image of a proud looking cat. Very intricate. "I've got some dough for it. Er, gold. Dialect again."

"It's obviously a counterfeit. The cat's paw's a couple centimeters above where it should be." Enchantment Whenever a permanent is put into an opponent's graveyard from the battlefield create a token that's a copy of it. If it's a creature, that token gains haste. Exile that token at the beginning of the end step. You need it. If you don't have it, you see things. Thing that should be gone. They drive you crazy.Intricate Coin: Clues are not a subtype, but I love this take on them. A very neat design to showcase a mechanic. 10/10 |

Uh, sorry to interrupt mrlozano, but clues actually are a subtype, just not used on any nontokens. The wording on investigate says "...create a colorless Clue artifact token with..." rather than "...create a colorless artifact token named "Clue" with...." |

I looked at the joints suspiciously. "Er, no thanks kid. I'm more into the nicotine part of the cigarettes." I said. Oddly dull for a planeswalker, but I like what I like. "Thanks anyway, I think I've got a couple spare in here somewhere..." I said, walking off, rooting through my coat -- that quack wasn't the only one who had lots of storage space.
(Feel free to chase him down - he's a paying customer after all)
Hallucinations of the Addict: Bit of a weird/long name, but that's fine. This is more of a red effect, I feel, probably red/black, but I could see it bent towards black if the set was right. 7.5/10 but practice what I preach so 8/10.

Uh, sorry to interrupt mrlozano , but clues actually are a subtype, just not used on any nontokens. The wording on investigate says "...create a colorless Clue artifact token with..." rather than "...create a colorless artifact token named "Clue" with...." I didn't knew that, thanks for the info. Anyways, that just makes gurf's card even better. |
