Mikko ruotii isolla lekalla Darksteelia ja ei onnistu tuhoamaan sitä. On aika Daa-ark-steeling. Niin normaalista korttien helppo/halpahintaisesta lajittelusta olen siirtynyt esseen vaativaan maailmaan. Eli pistän Darksteelin kortit järjestykseen oikein olan takaa ison tekstin kera. Pre-constructed dekeistä on paras ehkä Master Blaster, jossa on punainen pulse (sleeper) + 2 darksteel brutea (sleeper2), mutta korteista enemmän niiden kohdalla. Artikkelin lopussa on yhteenveto, top 10, sleeper-pickit ja varmaan jotain muutakin. Arvosanat on annettu constructedia ja casual playtä ajatellen. Enjoy hard time! Number: 165 cards total Color: 18 white, 18 blue, 18 black, 18 red, 18 green, 72 artifact, 3 land Rarity: 55 common, 55 uncommon, 55 rare Card Name: Æther Vial Color: A Cost: 1 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: At the beginning of your upkeep, you may put a charge counter on Æther Vial. T: You may put a creature card with converted mana cost equal to the number of charge counters on Æther Vial from your hand into play. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Greg Hildebrandt Tämäntyyppistä mekaniikkaa on yritetty eri tavoin vuosien varrella useasti. Tämä ei vain toimi. Kortti menee pilalle viimeistään siinä että tuo counttereiden määrä pitää olla just equal. Tietenkin voi pakkansa rakentaa siten että siinä on vain samancastingcostin creatureita. Koska kuitenkin kortti kerää charge-counttereita automaattisesti niin se ei ole läpeensä surkea, vaan pari muuta korttia voi kerätä siitä hyötyä (Power Conduct). Mitäs jos tuolla pystyisi laittamaan myös artifacteja/enchantmettejä myös???? HMMM! **1/2 Card Name: Angel’s Feather Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever a player plays a white spell, you may gain 1 life. Flavor Text: If taken, it cuts the hand that clutches it. If given, it heals the hand that holds it. Rarity: U Artist: Alan Pollack Näistä on hankala puhua kehuen. Turhat viisi slottia unkeista näille (jotka ovat itse asiassa parempia kuin alkuperäiset lucky charmit. JA ISO huom. Aluren ei tarvitse enää soul wardenia.... Sanoisin että punaista ja mustaa voi teoriassa käyttää sidessä. ** Card Name: Arcane Spyglass Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: 2, T, Sacrifice a land: Draw a card and put a charge counter on Arcane Spyglass. Remove three charge counters from Arcane Spyglass: Draw a card. Flavor Text: It breaches not physical distances but temporal ones. Rarity: C Artist: Trevor Hairsine Harvinainen kortti commoniksi. Siis että harvinainen. Tällä rikkoo monta stalematea. Jos maksaisi yhden manan vähemmän niin sitten mainio limited-kortti (tosin sitten tämän pitäisi olla unkki) *** Card Name: Arcbound Bruiser Color: A Cost: 5 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Modular 3 (This comes into play with three +1/+1 counters on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Break in case of emergency. Rarity: C Artist: Christopher Moeller Setin mekaniikoista ensimmäinen. Modular. Ei paras mahdollinen mekaniikka mutta hakkaa amplifyn ja varsinkin provoken (legionsista molemmat). Tämä on peruscommoni. ** Card Name: Arcbound Crusher Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Trample Whenever another artifact comes into play, put a +1/+1 counter on Arcbound Crusher. Modular 1 (This comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Michael Sutfin Olisin ollut sitä mieltä että manan olisi voinut vähemmän maksaa, mutta tämä kyllä kompoaa tautisesti tarvittaessa. Vaikka tämä näyttää viattomalta niin oikea pakka saattaa saada tästä nopeasti 5/5:n. Mitäs jos sideen affinityä vastaan...sehän olisi broodstarin kilpailija...ja kun tarkemmin kaivaa niin ehkä joku muu affinity-viritelmä voi käyttää...oma puna-mustani? Kyllä!...tämä on se iso liha mitä olen siihen BR-affinityyn kaivannut. Hyvä. Sleeper-leima päälle! ***1/2 Card Name: Arcbound Fiend Color: A Cost: 6 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Fear At the beginning of your upkeep, you may move a +1/+1 counter from target creature onto Arcbound Fiend. Modular 3 (This comes into play with three +1/+1 counters on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Ittoku Nihkeä. Olisi odottanut vähän enemmän. ** Card Name: Arcbound Hybrid Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Haste Modular 2 (This comes into play with two +1/+1 counters on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: Alan Pollack Perus Arcbound #2...ei ihmeitä suuntaan ei toiseen. ** Card Name: Arcbound Lancer Color: A Cost: 7 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: First strike Modular 4 (This comes into play with four +1/+1 counters on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: John Avon Arcboundeista saa kokoon kyllä hauskan kierrätyspakan. Ehkä urzan landeilla toimisi jopa hassun taudin lailla. Yritystä on. **1/2 Card Name: Arcbound Overseer Color: A Cost: 8 Type: Artifact Creature — Golem Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: At the beginning of your upkeep, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature with modular you control. Modular 6 (This comes into play with six +1/+1 counters on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Carl Critchlow Tämä on itseasiassa varmaan halutuimpia rareja ainakin niissä maissa jossa kaikki pelaajat eivät vielä ole "wanna-be-pro"-tasolla. Mikäs siinä. Tämä on sitä itseään. Teemaan sopiva kortti. Joka on kuitenkin aika iso vehje itsekin. *** Card Name: Arcbound Ravager Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Sacrifice an artifact: Put a +1/+1 counter on Arcbound Ravager. Modular 1 (This comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Carl Critchlow Arcbound Atog, imee ja myös nielee imemänsä eli ei ole vain until end of turn. Tätä itseasiassa varmaan pelataan nimittäin taas on kombon ohimenevä mahdollisuus. Oispa trample. ***1/2 Card Name: Arcbound Reclaimer Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Creature — Golem Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Remove a +1/+1 counter from Arcbound Reclaimer: Put target artifact card from your graveyard on top of your library. Modular 2 (This comes into play with two +1/+1 counters on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Jon Foster Nyt puhutaan asiaa. Abilityssa on puhkua kuin palokunnassa. Erinomainen. Mahdollisuudet ovat rajattomat...cappi, jar, disk, keg...hauska ku mikä ja hyvä oikeaan pakkaan...mulle näitä ainakin 3... **** Card Name: Arcbound Slith Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Creature — Slith Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Whenever Arcbound Slith deals combat damage to a player, put a +1/+1 counter on it. Modular 1 (This comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Vance Kovacs Kohutuin uusista slitheistä. Punainen paljastui erinomaiseksi lapuksi (mirrodin) joka löysi tiensä jopa t1:een asti...tällä ei tietenkään ole erittäin oleellista hastea, mutta ehkä sittenkin... nimittäin tämä on TODELLA houkuttelevaa pistää vaikkapa Ancient Tombilla tai vastaavalla kahden värittömän manan landilla eka kiekalla...siihen seuraavalla kierroksella toinen artifactiäijä (johon countterit siirtynevät...) eli potentiaalia on jopa blockkiin...ja muualle... ***1/2 Card Name: Arcbound Stinger Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Flying Modular 1 (This comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: Darrell Riche Perus Arcbound #3 ... pakkolappu ** Card Name: Arcbound Worker Color: A Cost: 1 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Modular 1 (This comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.) Flavor Text: The parts are as strong as the whole. Rarity: C Artist: Darrell Riche Perus-Arkkareista paras? *** Card Name: Auriok Siege Sled Color: A Cost: 6 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 3/5 Rules Text: 1: Target artifact creature blocks Auriok Siege Sled this turn if able. 1: Target artifact creature can’t block Auriok Siege Sled this turn. Flavor Text: Everything in its path is either pushed aside or ground under. Rarity: U Artist: Jim Murray Limitedissä hyvä, muuten tietenkin jöösiä ** Card Name: Chimeric Egg Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever an opponent plays a nonartifact spell, put a charge counter on Chimeric Egg. Remove three charge counters from Chimeric Egg: Chimeric Egg becomes a 6/6 artifact creature with trample until end of turn. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Michael Sutfin Hupaisa ainakin moninpeleissä. Muuten ehkä liian konditionaalinen...En oikein tykkää... **1/2 Card Name: Coretapper Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Creature — Myr Pow/Tgh: 1/1 Rules Text: T: Put a charge counter on target artifact. Sacrifice Coretapper: Put two charge counters on target artifact. Flavor Text: It converts the faintest surges of power from Mirrodin’s core into usable energy, providing endless power for Memnarch’s creations on the surface. Rarity: U Artist: Dany Orizio Combolicious HO-HO. Eli mahdollistaa chargecountter abusen oikein kunnolla...OK nyt minä paljastan sen kuningas-combon. Tämä ja Magistrate's Spectre (Masquesista). Eli se artifacti johon ladataan charge counttereita ja sitten käytetään ne lisävuoroon...erittäin potentiaalinen vaikka minkä muunkin tämän setin chargecounter-kortin kanssa...hyvä **** Card Name: Darksteel Brute Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Darksteel Brute is indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) 3: Darksteel Brute becomes a 2/2 artifact creature until end of turn. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Nottsuo Unohtakaa UW...tämä on nimittäin monomustan (MBC) kortti. Monomustassa on manaa ja voimaa putsata pöytä ja ajaa tällä vaikka maailman loppuun asti. Tätä pelataan. **** Card Name: Darksteel Colossus Color: A Cost: 11 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 11/11 Rules Text: Trample Darksteel Colossus is indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) If Darksteel Colossus would be put into a graveyard from anywhere, reveal Darksteel Colossus and shuffle it into its owner’s library instead. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Carl Critchlow ...kaikki nauraa tälle. mutta jos tämän show and tellilla pistää peliin kierroksella Kaksi (land + city of traitors), tai jopa kierroksella yksi (mox + city/vastaava) niin onhan vastustajalla KIIRE. Jos Oathi olisi extendedissa niin tässä olisi uusi lappu siihen. ***1/2 Card Name: Darksteel Forge Color: A Cost: 9 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Artifacts you control are indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy them.) Flavor Text: “Did it have this shape upon Mirrodin’s creation, or did some inconceivable force shape the unshapable?” —Pontifex, elder researcher Rarity: R Artist: Martina Pilcerova Jos maksaisi manan vähemmän niin tätä voisi yrittää tosissaan. Nyt on liian kallis. Mutta kieltämättä houkuttaa ajatus pistää ensin tämä ja sitten perään Obliterate... **1/2 Card Name: Darksteel Gargoyle Color: A Cost: 7 Type: Artifact Creature — Gargoyle Pow/Tgh: 3/3 Rules Text: Flying Darksteel Gargoyle is indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) Flavor Text: The ultimate treasure is one that guards itself.

(“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) T: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool. Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: Martina Pilcerova Tätä pelataan todella paljon. Liian hyvät ominaisuudet vaikka maksaakin manan enemmän kuin standardimanakivet. ***1/2 Card Name: Darksteel Pendant Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Darksteel Pendant is indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) 1, T: Look at the top card of your library. You may put that card on the bottom of your library. Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: Terese Nielsen Hassua että tämä on kommoni. Puolikas optia joka vuoro. ei paha. Sopivan halpa ja on mielestäni pelattava parissakin kohtaa mtg-formaattisceneä... ***1/2 Card Name: Darksteel Reactor Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Darksteel Reactor is indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) At the beginning of your upkeep, you may put a charge counter on Darksteel Reactor. When Darksteel Reactor has twenty or more charge counters on it, you win the game. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Kev Walker Ainakin tämä tekee sellaista mitä harva muu tekee. Tätä korttia varten ne power conductit ja coretapperit ovat tehdyt. Vaikuttaa hitaalta mutta sellainen nysvä-lukko pakka voi ottaa tämän lapsekseen millstonen sijaan... *** Card Name: Death-Mask Duplicant Color: A Cost: 7 Type: Artifact Creature — Shapeshifter Pow/Tgh: 5/5 Rules Text: Imprint — 1: Remove target creature card in your graveyard from the game. (The removed card is imprinted on this artifact.) As long as an imprinted creature card has flying, Death-Mask Duplicant has flying. The same is true for fear, first strike, double strike, haste, landwalk, protection, and trample. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Thomas M. Baxa Setin paras nimi. Hyvä kuva. Jos jotain vielä lisää...harmi että tuo ability on hiukan "vesitetty".... **1/2 Card Name: Demon’s Horn Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever a player plays a black spell, you may gain 1 life. Flavor Text: Its curve mimics the twists of life and death.

Flavor Text: Though no longer attached to the hand, it still holds its adversary in its grasp.

Rarity: C Artist: Mark Zug Nyt on syvältä... *1/2 Card Name: Dross Golem Color: A Cost: 5 Type: Artifact Creature — Golem Pow/Tgh: 3/2 Rules Text: Affinity for Swamps (This spell costs 1 less to play for each Swamp you control.) Fear Flavor Text: The longer it skulks through the corrosive gases of Mephidross, the more it adopts their thirst for death. Rarity: C Artist: Adam Rex Viattoman oloinen (aika monet Darksteelin korteista ovat ns skill testereitä, jotka tod.näk pompahtavat arvoon isoon)...tämäkin on monomustassa kolmannella kierroksella kahden manan 3/2 Fear... ***1/2 Card Name: Eater of Days Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Creature — Leviathan Pow/Tgh: 9/8 Rules Text: Flying, trample When Eater of Days comes into play, you skip your next two turns. Flavor Text: When Mirrodin’s varied civilizations developed ways to fight the levelers, Memnarch upped the stakes. Rarity: R Artist: Mark Tedin Puhkua on mutta drawbackissa tätä harva voittaa (final fortune)...kikkailemalla ehkä saa toimimaan, mutta enemmän hauska kuin hyvä *** (yksi tähti potentiaalille tulevien korttien kanssa) Card Name: Gemini Engine Color: A Cost: 6 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 3/4 Rules Text: Whenever Gemini Engine attacks, put an attacking Twin artifact creature token into play. Its power is equal to Gemini Engine’s power and its toughness is equal to Gemini Engine’s toughness. Sacrifice the token at end of combat. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Nottsuo Setin ehkä paras kuva. Minä pidän tästä. Harmi ettei maksa yhtä manaa vähemmän. Sympatiapisteitä multa! *** Card Name: Genesis Chamber Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever a nontoken creature comes into play, if Genesis Chamber is untapped, that creature’s controller puts a 1/1 Myr artifact creature token into play. Flavor Text: “As the experimental population grows, so do the number of myr. It’s a perfect equilibrium.” —Memnarch Rarity: U Artist: Mark Tedin vähän jöösiltä vaikuttaa...Myyrit voi jotenkin nousta mutta tuskin katajaa kapsahtavammin... ** Card Name: Geth’s Grimoire Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever an opponent discards a card from his or her hand, you may draw a card. Flavor Text: The book shrieks horribly until its cover is opened, granting the spirit inside a moment’s rest from the painful stirrings of the book’s contents. Rarity: U Artist: Heather Hudson Tämä vai megrim. Se on se kaava; kaksi damua = yksi kortti jutska. Toss-up. Kortinveto on mukavaa mutta megrim on halvempi (ja enchantmentti). ***1/2 Card Name: Heartseeker Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact — Equipment Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Equipped creature gets +2/+1 and has “T, Unattach Heartseeker: Destroy target creature.” Equip 5 (5: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This card comes into play unattached and stays in play if the creature leaves play.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Michael Sutfin Tässä setissä on equipmenteissä puhkua. Tässä ei ole. Liian kallis kaikkeen... Limitedissä tietenkin OK+... *1/2 Card Name: Juggernaut Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 5/3 Rules Text: Juggernaut attacks each turn if able. Juggernaut can’t be blocked by Walls. Flavor Text: The goblins built it far larger than the cave opening, but to their glee, it smashed into the mountainside, ripping itself a new exit. Rarity: U Artist: Arnie Swekel Klassikko. Tämä oli eka kertaa 2 vuoteen kun en yrittänyt arvata että juggis reprintataan ja niinhän sitten kävi. ****1/2 Card Name: Kraken’s Eye Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever a player plays a blue spell, you may gain 1 life. Flavor Text: Bright as a mirror, dark as the sea. Rarity: U Artist: Alan Pollack Hohjoijaa...vain se alureni jutska ehkä... *1/2 Card Name: Leonin Bola Color: A Cost: 1 Type: Artifact — Equipment Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Equipped creature has “T, Unattach Leonin Bola: Tap target creature.” Equip 1 (1: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This card comes into play unattached and stays in play if the creature leaves play.) Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: Christopher Moeller Tylsin equipmentti. Ihan turha ja "vaivauttava" * Card Name: Lich’s Tomb Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: You don’t lose the game for having 0 or less life. Whenever you lose life, sacrifice a permanent for each 1 life you lost. (Damage causes loss of life.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Matt Cavotta Aina jos Lich on kortin nimessä, pitää se lukea tarkasti. Tämä on aika siinä ja siinä. Erittäin isona plussana voi sacata myös tokeneita. Tähän joku kehittää jotain oikein jännää kyllä. ***1/2 Card Name: Memnarch Color: A Cost: 7 Type: Artifact Creature — Wizard Legend Pow/Tgh: 4/5 Rules Text: 1UU: Target permanent becomes an artifact in addition to its other types. (This effect doesn’t end at end of turn.) 3U: Gain control of target artifact. (This effect doesn’t end at end of turn.) Flavor Text: In the blur between metal and flesh, Memnarch found madness. Rarity: R Artist: Carl Critchlow Niitä setin hauskimpia ja oikeastaan mainio. Menee samaan pakkaan kuin BOSH. Mirror-tinkerissa olisi ollut aika hassu...jälleen kerran joku urzan landeilla tämän vielä nopeasti pelaa... **** Card Name: Mycosynth Lattice Color: A Cost: 6 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: All permanents are artifacts in addition to their other types. All cards that aren’t in play, spells, and permanents are colorless. Players may spend mana as though it were mana of any color. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Anthony S. Waters Celestial Dawn on nyt väritön. Tämä mahdollistaa kikkoja suuntaan ja toiseen ja suhteellisen varma olen ollut että tämä on ollut pelitestauksesas 4 tai 5 manaa ja joku on sitten tajunnut kauheita...Hauska, mutta ehkä tweakattu piloille. *** Card Name: Myr Landshaper Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact Creature — Myr Pow/Tgh: 1/1 Rules Text: T: Target land becomes an artifact in addition to its other types until end of turn. Flavor Text: One thing the myr can’t do is enjoy the scenery. Rarity: C Artist: Greg Staples Landit saa tuhottua artifact poistolla. Joku tekee Myr Landshaper-Gorilla Shaman -pakan. Muuhun tästä ei ole...paitsi että tällä voi kasvattaa affinity puhkua...silti huono... *1/2 Card Name: Myr Matrix Color: A Cost: 5 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Myr Matrix is indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) All Myr get +1/+1. 5: Put a 1/1 Myr artifact creature token into play. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Mark Tedin Combolicious part 2.

Flavor Text: Memnarch created the myr with three qualities in mind: dependability, controllability, and disposability. Rarity: C Artist: Dany Orizio Setin nynnyin kortin nimi. Kortti sinänsä mahdollistaa pientä kikkailua...(Culling the Weak?) ** Card Name: Nemesis Mask Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact — Equipment Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: All creatures able to block equipped creature do so. Equip 3 (3: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This card comes into play unattached and stays in play if the creature leaves play.)

Haste Flavor Text: The longer it patrols the smoldering crags of the Oxidda Chain, the more it adopts their fiery temper. Rarity: C Artist: Greg Staples Kolmannen kierroksen haste 3/2...hmmm...ei niin hyvä kuin musta esikuvansa (tai rinnakkaiskuvansa) *** Card Name: Panoptic Mirror Color: A Cost: 5 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Imprint — X, T: You may remove an instant or sorcery card with converted mana cost X in your hand from the game. (That card is imprinted on this artifact.) At the beginning of your upkeep, you may copy an imprinted instant or sorcery card and play the copy without paying its mana cost. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Glen Angus Kuten isochon specteri on tämäkin tosi tauhka potentiaalisesti. Ajatuskin siitä että tähän imppaa time walkin/warpin on houkutteleva. Tosimies kombo on tietenkin: Darksteel Forge - Panoptic Mirror johon impattuna Obliterate...eli joka upkeepissa Obliterate. ****1/2 Card Name: Razor Golem Color: A Cost: 6 Type: Artifact Creature — Golem Pow/Tgh: 3/4 Rules Text: Affinity for Plains (This spell costs 1 less to play for each Plains you control.) Attacking doesn’t cause Razor Golem to tap. Flavor Text: The longer it stands among the deadly blades of the Razor Fields, the more it adopts their harsh exterior. Rarity: C Artist: Christopher Moeller Tämä on loistava limited-kortti. ja voiko jopa sneakata constructediin? ***1/2 Card Name: Serum Powder Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: T: Add 1 to your mana pool. Any time you could mulligan and Serum Powder is in your hand, you may remove your hand from the game, then draw that many cards. (You can do this in addition to taking mulligans.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Matt Thompson Ainakin uusi idea. Combopakat ainakin kokeilee. *** (+*1/2 oikeassa pakassa?) Card Name: Shield of Kaldra Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Legendary Artifact — Equipment Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Equipment named Sword of Kaldra, Shield of Kaldra, and Helm of Kaldra are indestructible.

Remove a +1/+1 counter from Spincrusher: Spincrusher is unblockable this turn. Flavor Text: It rolls with the punches.

Flying Flavor Text: The longer it soars above the shimmering swirls of the Quicksilver Sea, the more it adopts their unpredictability. Rarity: C Artist: Daren Bader Joku sanoikin että draw-go on ehkä kiinnostunut pelaamaan tämän vuorolla 6 ilmaiseksi... Mono-sinisessä tämä on kolmannen kierroksen 2/4 lentävä... ***1/2 Card Name: Sundering Titan Color: A Cost: 8 Type: Artifact Creature Pow/Tgh: 7/10 Rules Text: When Sundering Titan comes into play, choose a land of each basic land type, then destroy those lands.

Equip 2 Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Mark Zug Kerrassaan mainio lappu (limitedissä mahtava) jopa constructed käyttöä mahdollisesti!!! ****1/2 Card Name: Sword of Light and Shadow Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact — Equipment Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Equipped creature gets +2/+2 and has protection from white and from black. Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage to a player, you gain 3 life and you may return up to one target creature card from your graveyard to your hand. Equip 2 Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Mark Zug Ei niin hyvä kuin fire/ice miekka mutta aika lähellä! **** Card Name: Talon of Pain Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever a source you control other than Talon of Pain deals damage to an opponent, put a charge counter on Talon of Pain. X, T, Remove X charge counters from Talon of Pain: Talon of Pain deals X damage to target creature or player. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Daren Bader Charge counttereita. Ei muuta hyvää. ** Card Name: Tangle Golem Color: A Cost: 7 Type: Artifact Creature — Golem Pow/Tgh: 5/4 Rules Text: Affinity for Forests (This spell costs 1 less to play for each Forest you control.) Flavor Text: The longer it weaves through the twisted vines of the Tangle, the more it adopts their hidden strength. Rarity: C Artist: Arnie Swekel Monovihreän jyrälappu. Kyllä on vanha kunnon ernie menettänyt statustaan viime aikoina. Tämä on vaatimattomuuttaan parempi lappu ja monovihrea blokkidekki pelaa tätä... ***1/2 Card Name: Thought Dissector Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: X, T: Target opponent reveals cards from the top of his or her library until an artifact card or X cards are revealed, whichever comes first. If an artifact card is revealed this way, put it into play under your control and sacrifice Thought Dissector. Put the rest of the revealed cards into that player’s graveyard. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Matt Cavotta Helm of Obedience artifacteille. Hauska tietenkin. Toimiva? Ei ehkä ihan. *** Card Name: Thunderstaff Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: If Thunderstaff is untapped and a creature would deal combat damage to you, prevent 1 of that damage. 2, T: Attacking creatures get +1/+0 until end of turn. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Kaja Foglio Caltrops tavallaan mutta käänteisesti ja oikeastaan eri lailla. Ainakaan oravatokenit ei enää ole haitaksi... *** Card Name: Trinisphere Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: As long as Trinisphere is untapped, each spell that would cost less than three mana to play costs three mana to play. (Additional mana in the cost may be paid with any color of mana or colorless mana. For example, a spell that would cost 1B to play costs 2B to play instead.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Tim Hildebrandt T1 kortti joka EI mahdollista comboja vaan särkee niitä. Vaikuttaa kaikkeen oleelliseen t1:ssa (halvat manamaksut, additional costit, mind desire/agonis stormikortit....). Aivan kuten chalice. **** Card Name: Ur-Golem’s Eye Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: T: Add 2 to your mana pool. Flavor Text: It still stares accusingly at Memnarch, though millennia have passed since he separated the eye from its body. Rarity: C Artist: Heather Hudson Sisay Ringi is back. Selkä. *1/2 Card Name: Voltaic Construct Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Creature — Golem Pow/Tgh: 2/2 Rules Text: 2: Untap target artifact creature. Flavor Text: The undead may outlast the living, but those who have never lived outlast them both. Rarity: U Artist: Jeff Easley Typerä kortti. Ainoa mihin tätä voi käyttää on Metalworker jolloin typeryyn on sanoinkuvaamatonta (kahden kortin infinite mana) * (arvosana noin alas kortin typeryyden takia) Card Name: Vulshok Morningstar Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact — Equipment Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Equipped creature gets +2/+2. Equip 2 (2: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This card comes into play unattached and stays in play if the creature leaves play.) Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: David Martin Perusequippi. *** Card Name: Wand of the Elements Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: T, Sacrifice an Island: Put a 2/2 blue Elemental creature token with flying into play. T, Sacrifice a Mountain: Put a 3/3 red Elemental creature token into play. Flavor Text: It gives legs to the earth and wings to the sky. Rarity: R Artist: Thomas M. Baxa UR pakkaan yksi näitä aina? Tämä on niin potentiaalinen ettei paljon rajoja. Hieno kortti ja idea. HYVÄ. **** Card Name: Well of Lost Dreams Color: A Cost: 4 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever you gain life, you may pay X, where X is less than or equal to the amount of life you gained. If you do, draw X cards. Flavor Text: Some say the knowledge lost during the Ritual of Rebuking is returned through the well’s waters. Rarity: R Artist: Jeff Miracola Lifegain dekkien perusvehje alkaen nyt. ***1/2 Card Name: Whispersilk Cloak Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact — Equipment Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Equipped creature is unblockable and can’t be the target of spells or abilities. Equip 2 (2: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This card comes into play unattached and stays in play if the creature leaves play.) Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: Luca Zontini Limitedkortti ** Card Name: Wirefly Hive Color: A Cost: 3 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: 3, T: Flip a coin. If you win the flip, put a 2/2 Wirefly artifact creature token with flying into play. If you lose the flip, destroy all Wireflies. Flavor Text: “The lifespan of a wirefly can be precisely described as ‘short.’” —Bruenna, Neurok leader Rarity: U Artist: Nottsuo Ei jaksa ilman obvious comboja (thumb, unnatural selection) *1/2 Card Name: Wurm’s Tooth Color: A Cost: 2 Type: Artifact Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Whenever a player plays a green spell, you may gain 1 life. Flavor Text: A wurm knows nothing of deception. If it opens its mouth, it plans to eat you. Rarity: U Artist: Alan Pollack pöö pää ** Välikommentti artifacteista: Ihan niin puhkuja artifacteja kuin Mirrodinin parhat olivat, ei tässä nyt ollut mutta käyttökelpoisia ja ehdottomasti potentiaalisia oli paljon. Equipmenteissa oli enemmän poweria (ja mielenkiintoisuutta) kuin Mirrodinin vastaavissa, mutta vastaavasti tässä ei ollut sellaisia "obvious chase cards" kuten Oblivion Stone ja Chrome Mox. Artikkelin lopussa lisää kommentteja asiasta. Arvosana artifacteille: **** MUSTAT: Card Name: Æther Snap Color: B Cost: 3BB Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Remove all counters from all permanents and remove all tokens from the game. Flavor Text: “May you wake to find you were only ever a dream.” —Mephidross curse Rarity: R Artist: Kev Walker Narrow card. Jolla pääsääntöisesti ei tee mitään mutta silloin kun tekee on kyllä aika maukas (Darksteel Reactorissa 19 counteria ja sitten toinen heittää tämän...aarrggg") Olisi pitänyt olla instant. Toisaalta tällä tappaa crittereitäkin (tokenit ja counttereiden varassa elävät...) *** Card Name: Burden of Greed Color: B Cost: 3B Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Target player loses 1 life for each tapped artifact he or she controls. Flavor Text: “The one who dies with the most toys is still dead.” —Geth, keeper of the Vault Rarity: C Artist: Vance Kovacs Surkea lappu. * Card Name: Chittering Rats Color: B Cost: 1BB Type: Creature — Rat Pow/Tgh: 2/2 Rules Text: When Chittering Rats comes into play, target opponent puts a card from his or her hand on top of his or her library. Flavor Text: Bottom feeders sometimes rise to the top. Rarity: C Artist: Tom Wänerstrand Mitäs tykkäätte kombosta. Sininen shard (se joka palauttaa käteen äijän) ja tämä. Siinä on lukko josta ei toivu....hehheeh.. ***1/2 (jos tuo kompo rulaa niin enemmänkin!) Card Name: Death Cloud Color: B Cost: XBBB Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Each player loses X life, then discards X cards from his or her hand, then sacrifices X creatures, then sacrifices X lands. Flavor Text: The swarm’s million wings stir the foulest of breezes. Rarity: R Artist: Stephen Tappin POX. ei niin hyvä tietenkään mutta tätä kokeillaan ja MBC voi löytää mahdollisuuden abusata tätä enemmänkin. **** Card Name: Echoing Decay Color: B Cost: 1B Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Target creature and all other creatures with the same name as that creature get -2/-2 until end of turn. Flavor Text: A single fear unleashes a torrent of nightmares. Rarity: C Artist: Greg Staples Jos Darksteel Brute yleistyy niin tätä pelataan enemmänkin jopa constructedissa. Ainakin blokissa pelataan! ***1/2 Card Name: Emissary of Despair Color: B Cost: 1BB Type: Creature — Spirit Pow/Tgh: 2/1 Rules Text: Flying Whenever Emissary of Despair deals combat damage to a player, that player loses 1 life for each artifact he or she controls. Vaarallinen kortti. Vaarallinen. Jopa hyväkin. *** Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: rk post Card Name: Essence Drain Color: B Cost: 4B Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Essence Drain deals 3 damage to target creature or player and you gain 3 life. Flavor Text: Mephidross claims all life within it. What cannot be twisted is absorbed. Rarity: C Artist: Tony Szczudlo Peruskortti. Harmi vain että on automaattisesti huonompi kuin Consume Spirit. ** Card Name: Greater Harvester Color: B Cost: 2BBB Type: Creature — Horror Pow/Tgh: 5/6 Rules Text: At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice a permanent. Whenever Greater Harvester deals combat damage to a player, that player sacrifices two permanents. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Daren Bader Setin puhkuin äijä. Minä uskon tähän. Braidsiin verrattuna pitäisi olla samaa tasoa. Ja varsinkin oikeassa pakassa tämä on puhku. Jos tämä ajaa hastella tyhjään pöytään niin se on aika lähellä game siinä. ****1/2 Card Name: Grimclaw Bats Color: B Cost: 1B Type: Creature — Bat Pow/Tgh: 1/1 Rules Text: Flying B, Pay 1 life: Grimclaw Bats gets +1/+1 until end of turn. Flavor Text: Even on a world of metal, there are those who thirst for blood. Rarity: C Artist: Tom Wänerstrand Nantuko Shade lentää ja on tuskallisempi. **1/2 Card Name: Hunger of the Nim Color: B Cost: 1B Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Target creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn for each artifact you control. Flavor Text: Their pain is so great, they can’t help but share it with others. Rarity: C Artist: Puddnhead Tämä ei nosta ku on Sorcery *1/2 Card Name: Mephitic Ooze Color: B Cost: 4B Type: Creature — Ooze Pow/Tgh: 0/5 Rules Text: Mephitic Ooze gets +1/+0 for each artifact you control. Whenever Mephitic Ooze deals combat damage to a creature, destroy that creature. The creature can’t be regenerated. Flavor Text: In Mephidross, refuse doesn’t last long—it’s all scavenged, reanimated, or consumed. Rarity: R Artist: Alex Horley-Orlandelli Hyvä creature, joka aika helposti on se 5/5 ja sitten enemmänkin. Liian iso potentiaalisesti, jotta voisi ohittaa jos artifact-pakkaa tekee... ***1/2 Card Name: Murderous Spoils Color: B Cost: 5B Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Destroy target nonblack creature. It can’t be regenerated. You gain control of all Equipment that was attached to it. (This effect doesn’t end at end of turn.) Flavor Text: Scavengers are always the first to pay their respects. Rarity: U Artist: Adam Rex Hirvittävän kallis. *1/2 Card Name: Nim Abomination Color: B Cost: 2B Type: Creature — Zombie Pow/Tgh: 3/4 Rules Text: At the end of your turn, if Nim Abomination is untapped, you lose 3 life. Flavor Text: It is one of the oldest nim, steeped so long in the Dross that it has lost all vestiges of humanity. Rarity: U Artist: Jim Murray Ongelma on siinä että tämä taistelee 3cc:n slotissa todella hyviä korttejä vastaan. Ok creature, mutta se ei riitä. Pitää olla hyvä ja mielummin mahtava. *** Card Name: Pulse of the Dross Color: B Cost: 1BB Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Target player reveals three cards from his or her hand and you choose one of them. That player discards that card. Then if that player has more cards in hand than you, return Pulse of the Dross to its owner’s hand. Flavor Text: Before tyrants or torturers, there was evil. Rarity: R Artist: Paolo Parente Vaikea tapaus. Vähintään melkein coersion mutta tarpeeksi kaukana ettei se riitä. Liian manakas jotta voisi heittää 2x saman vuoron aikana... **1/2 Card Name: Scavenging Scarab Color: B Cost: 3B Type: Creature — Insect Pow/Tgh: 3/3 Rules Text: Scavenging Scarab can’t block. Flavor Text: The beetles feed not on the flesh of corpses but on the metal, grinding out the iron and steel to add to their own bulky shells. Rarity: C Artist: Jeff Easley Kauas on menty Moor Fiendin ja Bog Wraithin ajoista. *1/2 Card Name: Screams from Within Color: B Cost: 1BB Type: Enchant Creature Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Enchanted creature gets -1/-1. When enchanted creature is put into a graveyard, return Screams from Within from your graveyard to play. Flavor Text: There’s no escaping an enemy that lives inside your head. Rarity: U Artist: Hugh Jamieson Ei jaksa loppuun asti. ** Card Name: Scrounge Color: B Cost: 2B Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Target opponent chooses an artifact card in his or her graveyard. Put that card into play under your control. Flavor Text: When leonin settlers abandon their homes to the nim, items of value are often left behind. Rarity: U Artist: Pete Venters Oispa mahtava jos pääsisi itse valitsemaan tuon artifactin. Nyt on tosi vaikeaa saada tästä mitään hyötyä irti... **1/2 Card Name: Shriveling Rot Color: B Cost: 2BB Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Choose one — Until end of turn, whenever a creature is dealt damage, destroy it; or until end of turn, whenever a creature is put into a graveyard from play, that creature’s controller loses life equal to its toughness. Entwine 2B (Choose both if you pay the entwine cost.) Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Alex Horley-Orlandelli Minä pidän tästä. Vaatii manaa liikaa ollakseen pelattava, mutta jostain syystä minä pidän tästä. *** Mustat kortit olivat hienoinen pettymys. Greater Harvester oli helmi ja sitten oli pari muuta jotka tarvitsivat pakan ympärilleen. Varsinaisia suoraan hyviä kortteja oli vähemmän (kuten esim Innocent Blood, Chainers Edict, Duress..) Arvosana mustille: **1/2 Card Name: Ageless Entity Color: G Cost: 3GG Type: Creature — Elemental Pow/Tgh: 4/4 Rules Text: Whenever you gain life, put that many +1/+1 counters on Ageless Entity. Flavor Text: Tel-Jilad’s sworn protectors are the trolls, yet more fearsome protectors were created by the Tangle itself. Rarity: R Artist: Jeff Miracola Se että voi tämä ajaa esim hastena ja pistää 5-6 landia zuranorbbiin ja tehdä aika monta damagea päähän on kiehtova idea. Jos neljännellä kierroksella pelaa Balothin ja sitten tämän niin Balothista tuli sitten arcbound...varmaan lifegain pakkojen tekijät ilahtuvat ja mahdollisesti muutkin. Miten olisi tämä pöydässä gerrads wisdom ja siita esim 10/10 counterit lisää tähän? **** Card Name: Echoing Courage Color: G Cost: 1G Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Target creature and all other creatures with the same name as that creature get +2/+2 until end of turn. Flavor Text: A single seed unleashes a flurry of growth. Rarity: C Artist: Greg Staples Overrun tokeneilla. Toimiihan tämä tokenien kanssa? *** Card Name: Fangren Firstborn Color: G Cost: 1GGG Type: Creature — Beast Pow/Tgh: 4/2 Rules Text: Whenever Fangren Firstborn attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on each attacking creature. Flavor Text: In the Tangle, bad is often followed by worse. Rarity: R Artist: Tim Hildebrandt Hyvä kortti mutta kilpailu on kovaa. Tämä on kuitenkin niin potentiaalinen ettei tätä voi täysin sivuuttaa missään vaiheessa jos mono-green beatdown yleistyy... ***1/2 Card Name: Infested Roothold Color: G Cost: 4G Type: Creature — Wall Pow/Tgh: 0/3 Rules Text: (Walls can’t attack.) Protection from artifacts Whenever an opponent plays an artifact spell, you may put a 1/1 green Insect creature token into play. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Terese Nielsen Hieman kallis mutta tällä voi tienata muutaman tokenin tiukkaan paikkaan oikeaa dekkia vastaan. Mutta ei silti mihinkään. ** Card Name: Karstoderm Color: G Cost: 2GG Type: Creature — Beast Pow/Tgh: 0/0 Rules Text: Karstoderm comes into play with five +1/+1 counters on it. Whenever an artifact comes into play, remove a +1/+1 counter from Karstoderm. Flavor Text: Rarity: U Artist: Tony Szczudlo Ei toimi millään blokissa, typessä paremmin. Ehkä sidekäyttöä? Ei sitäkään. ** Card Name: Nourish Color: G Cost: GG Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: You gain 6 life. Flavor Text: Gelfruit grows abundantly wherever Sylvok druids live, as if the Tangle knows that humans are not as hardy as the beasts or as nimble as the elves. Rarity: C Artist: Scott M. Fischer Niitä parhaita lifegain kortteja. Tätä tulee näkymään impatuna isochron specteriin sekä sideissä ja NIISSÄ LIFEGAIN dekeissä jotka yleistyvät darksteelin hyvien vehkeiden myötä. ***1/2 Card Name: Oxidize Color: G Cost: G Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Destroy target artifact. It can’t be regenerated. Flavor Text: “Ashes to ashes, rust to rust.” —Viridian shaman Rarity: U Artist: Kev Walker Setin parasta utilityä. Suoraan parempi kuin vanha (ja tyylikäs) Crumble (jonka reprinttamista vastaan mulla ei olisi ollut mitään) **** Card Name: Pulse of the Tangle Color: G Cost: 1GG Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Put a 3/3 green Beast creature token into play. Then if an opponent controls more creatures than you, return Pulse of the Tangle to its owner’s hand. Flavor Text: Before predators or prey, there was life. Rarity: R Artist: Wayne England Hankala setupattava, koska toimiakseen kunnolla tulee vastustajalla olla pari creaturea enemmän. Sideen? tämä on kuitenkin tokeni joka comboaa pari muun blokin kortin kanssa (kuten esim. Proteus Staff) *** Card Name: Reap and Sow Color: G Cost: 3G Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Choose one — Destroy target land; or search your library for a land card, put that card into play, then shuffle your library. Entwine 1G (Choose both if you pay the entwine cost.) Flavor Text: Rarity: C Artist: Rob Alexander ...huom...land card...eli ei tarvi olla basic land. Mutta silti ei. Tässä on costillisesti liian hankalat mekaniikat jotta tätä helposti saisi paremmaksi ilman että olisi liian hyvä. **1/2 Card Name: Rebuking Ceremony Color: G Cost: 3GG Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Put two target artifacts on top of their owners’ libraries. Flavor Text: From the Radix at the hub of the Tangle all the way out to the Edges of Forgetting, a Viridian elf’s life is built around the temporary. Rarity: R Artist: Ittoku Plow Under. Tämä on more narrow kuin Plow Under, mutta ainakin vastustaja joutuu castaamaan ne uudestaan. Oikeaa pakkaa vastaan tämä voi olla sellainen pari timewalkkeja että siitä ei toivu. Mutta narrow card. **1/2 Card Name: Roaring Slagwurm Color: G Cost: 5GG Type: Creature — Wurm Pow/Tgh: 6/4 Rules Text: Whenever Roaring Slagwurm attacks, tap all artifacts. Flavor Text: Wurms compete for nesting grounds near the Radix. The young who hatch closest have the best chance for survival. Rarity: R Artist: David Martin Setin pakollinen iso tyhmä. * Card Name: Stand Together Color: G Cost: 3GG Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Put two +1/+1 counters on target creature and two +1/+1 counters on another target creature. Flavor Text: Strange times make for strange allies. Rarity: U Artist: Luca Zontini Jos maksaisi manan vähemmän tämä voisi jopa constructedissa toimia. Nyt ei toimi. ** Card Name: Tangle Spider Color: G Cost: 4GG Type: Creature — Spider Pow/Tgh: 3/4 Rules Text: You may play Tangle Spider any time you could play an instant. Tangle Spider may block as though it had flying. Flavor Text: They’re considered good luck by the elves they don’t eat. Rarity: C Artist: Terese Nielsen Limited kortti. Next. *1/2 Card Name: Tanglewalker Color: G Cost: 2G Type: Creature — Dryad Pow/Tgh: 2/2 Rules Text: Creatures you control are unblockable as long as defending player controls an artifact land. Flavor Text: In bringing life to Mirrodin, Memnarch was more successful than he knew—for Mirrodin began to take on a life of its own. Rarity: U Artist: Pete Venters Talking about narrowability. *1/2 Card Name: Tel-Jilad Outrider Color: G Cost: 3G Type: Creature — Elf Warrior Pow/Tgh: 3/1 Rules Text: Protection from artifacts Flavor Text: “When the levelers come again, we shall be ready for them.” Rarity: C Artist: Paolo Parente Nyt on monta niskajöösiä peräkkäin. Siis 3/1 neljällä manalla joka toimii joskus jotain pakkaa vastaan...limited skill tester... * Card Name: Tel-Jilad Wolf Color: G Cost: 2G Type: Creature — Wolf Pow/Tgh: 2/2 Rules Text: Whenever Tel-Jilad Wolf becomes blocked by an artifact creature, Tel-Jilad Wolf gets +3/+3 until end of turn. Flavor Text: Thanks to the wolves, Tel-Jilad is the one area of Mirrodin the myr don’t see often. Rarity: C Artist: Paolo Parente Limited kortti. Huono. *1/2 Card Name: Viridian Acolyte Color: G Cost: G Type: Creature — Elf Shaman Pow/Tgh: 1/1 Rules Text: 1, T: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool. Flavor Text: “We have no sun to guide our dead, so I tend the prismatic flames of the spirit fires that show the souls their way. When I die, I hope there is one left to guide my spirit home.” Rarity: C Artist: D. Alexander Gregory Uusia yrityksiä. Mutta ei maksa vaivaa. vanhat manakoneet ovat superior... ** Card Name: Viridian Zealot Color: G Cost: GG Type: Creature — Elf Warrior Pow/Tgh: 2/1 Rules Text: 1G, Sacrifice Viridian Zealot: Destroy target artifact or enchantment. Flavor Text: “I will fight only the way nature intended—and nature intended us to win.” Rarity: R Artist: Kev Walker Setin kunkkukortteja. Menee extendediin suoraan ja jopa t1:een. Todella hyvä kortti! ***** Vihreät olivat parempi esitys kuin musta. Huiput olivat terävämmät ja niitä oli enemmän. Pohjasakkaakin oli mutta kokonaisuutena vihreä oli hyvä, (kuten aina blokin kakkossetissä) vihreälle kokonaisuutena: ***1/2 Card Name: Blinkmoth Nexus Color: L Cost: Type: Land Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: T: Add 1 to your mana pool. 1: Blinkmoth Nexus becomes a 1/1 Blinkmoth artifact creature with flying until end of turn. It’s still a land. 1, T: Target Blinkmoth gets +1/+1 until end of turn. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Brian Snoddy Hyvä manland. Harmi että rare. ***1/2 Card Name: Darksteel Citadel Color: L Cost: Type: Artifact Land Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Darksteel Citadel is indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy it.) T: Add 1 to your mana pool. Flavor Text: Panopticon, forge of the Darksteel Eye, home of Mirrodin’s keeper. Rarity: C Artist: John Avon Setin pelatuin kortti? Jokainen affinity pakka pelaa näitä ja occasional muukin pakka (obliterate taas). **** Card Name: Mirrodin’s Core Color: L Cost: Type: Land Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: T: Add 1 to your mana pool. T: Put a charge counter on Mirrodin’s Core. T, Remove a charge counter from Mirrodin’s Core: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.

Hyvä! **** Card Name: Barbed Lightning Color: R Cost: 2R Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Choose one — Barbed Lightning deals 3 damage to target creature; or Barbed Lightning deals 3 damage to target player. Entwine 2 (Choose both if you pay the entwine cost.) Flavor Text: Every creature on Mirrodin is a lightning rod. Rarity: C Artist: Hugh Jamieson Perusburni. Tappelee Carbonizen kanssa samasta slotista ja häviää. **1/2 Card Name: Crazed Goblin Color: R Cost: R Type: Creature — Goblin Warrior Pow/Tgh: 1/1 Rules Text: Crazed Goblin attacks each turn if able. Flavor Text: Because fighting is easier than figuring out what else to do. Rarity: C Artist: Darrell Riche Huonoin goblini aikoihin. Miksi ihmeessä drawback? * Card Name: Dismantle Color: R Cost: 2R Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Destroy target artifact. If that artifact had counters on it, put that many +1/+1 counters or charge counters on an artifact you control. Flavor Text: “If only the living were so easily salvaged.” —Memnarch Rarity: U Artist: Brian Snoddy Tarpeellinen kortti blokkiin. Huomaa että voit tuplata darksteel reactorin counterit tällä kortilla (tuhoa reactori, reactori ei tuhoudukkaan mutta saat silti pistää counterit siihen) ***1/2 Card Name: Drooling Ogre Color: R Cost: 1R Type: Creature — Ogre Pow/Tgh: 3/3 Rules Text: Whenever a player plays an artifact spell, that player gains control of Drooling Ogre. (This effect doesn’t end at end of turn.) Flavor Text: “Is it the stomping kind or the munching kind?” —Slobad, goblin tinkerer Rarity: C Artist: Brian Snoddy Setin hassuin kortin nimi. Sideen? *** Card Name: Echoing Ruin Color: R Cost: 1R Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Destroy target artifact and all other artifacts with the same name as that artifact. Flavor Text: A single misstep unleashes an avalanche of ruin. Rarity: C Artist: Greg Staples Jos aloittaa kahdella samalla artifact landilla ja vastustaja pääsee niittaamaan tämän niin onhan vaikeaa... ***1/2 Card Name: Fireball Color: R Cost: XR Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Fireball deals X damage divided evenly, rounded down, among any number of target creatures and/or players. As an additional cost to play Fireball, pay 1 for each target beyond the first. Flavor Text: The spell fell upon the crowd like a dragon, ancient and full of death. Rarity: U Artist: Dave Dorman Klassikko. Hyvä X. **** Card Name: Flamebreak Color: R Cost: RRR Type: Sorcery Pow/Tgh: Rules Text: Flamebreak deals 3 damage to each creature without flying and each player. Creatures dealt damage this way can’t be regenerated this turn. Flavor Text: “Now I’m thirsty.” —Korva, Vulshok battlemaster Rarity: R Artist: Trevor Hairsine Earthquakea ei (nyyh) enää reprintattu kasiin. Tämä on ok ja aika lähellä hyvää. ***1/2 Card Name: Furnace Dragon Color: R Cost: 6RRR Type: Creature — Dragon Pow/Tgh: 5/5 Rules Text: Affinity for artifacts (This spell costs 1 less to play for each artifact you control.) Flying When Furnace Dragon comes into play, if you played it from your hand, remove all artifacts from the game. Flavor Text: Rarity: R Artist: Matthew D.

If you win the flip, destroy target artifact and untap Goblin Archaeologist. If you lose the flip, sacrifice Goblin Archaeologist.

Flavor Text: A Vulshok weapon strikes with the fire of the forge that made it. Rarity: C Artist: Hugh Jamieson Onko tämä reprintti?

Then if that player has more life than you, return Pulse of the Forge to its owner’s hand. Flavor Text: Before wars or weapons, there was anger. Rarity: R Artist: Paolo Parente Tämä on hyvä. tämä on punainen-punainen mirrorissa ihan GOLDEN. Siis jos sulla on 3 lifea ja vastustajalla 8 niin tällä yhdellä kortilla voi swingata lifot.

Flavor Text: “You might want to work on your aim.” Rarity: R Artist: Greg Hildebrandt Olen aina pitänyt Deflectionia hyvänä korttina. Misdirection (ja divert) olivat sitten liian hyviä.

Flavor Text: “Someday, someone will best me. But it won’t be today, and it won’t be you.” Rarity: R Artist: Scott M. Fischer Todella hieno kuva. Odotettu countteri.

Ne harvat hyvät vaativat niitä equipmenttejä, joten eiköhän ne constructediin löydä tiensä. Setti kokonaisuutena on vähän ristiriitainen. Teema on hieno ja aluksi ärsyttäneet arcbounditkin ovat paljastumassa osa jopa constructed-kamaksi. Selvästi on (kuten legionsissa) varottu Tormentin esimerkkiä että setin omat teemat olisivat heti alkuun liian vahvoja (kuten madness). Mutta mielenkiintosia kortteja on tiedossa, jota muuttavat t2:sta jossei paljon niin ainakin enemmän kuin legions....bonuksena suurin osa niistä "affinity-for-a-given-basic-land"-korteista on pelattavia! Kokonaisuutena setille ***1/2 + Mielenkiintoisia kortteja joissa uusia ideoita + Setin aliteemat ovat toimivia (lifegain, arcbound) + Imprintin ja Equipmenttien jalostus eteenpäin + Uusi chargecounttereihin perustuva pakkatyyppi + Hyvä taide + klassikko reprintit (juggis, fireball) - Pikkuisen varovainen (varsinkin erinomaisen mirrodinin jälkeen) - Valkea ja musta sai kenkäänsä - Liiankin "skilltester" setti Tässä tulee muistaa että vaikka taas haukutaan niin kyllä täältä ne perushyvät laput löytyvät ajan mittaan. Seuraavaksi top10 ja top10 sleeperit: Top10 kortit: 1 Viridian Zealot - mahtava kortti, juuri sitä mitä vihreä tai rock on kaivannut 2 Greater Harvester - poweria on liikaa, jotta tätä voisi jättää pois 3 Trinisphere - T1 shakes again 4 Darksteel Brute - Blinking Spirit joka on vieläkin hankalampi 5 Darksteel Citadel - Setin pelatuin kortti..(ku niin monta affinity pakkaa) 6 Shunt - Punaiselle mahtilisä 7 Panoptic Mirror - kombot, utilityt ja vaikka mitkä on kiva kasata tähän. 8 Juggernaut - klassikko 9 Pulse of the Grid - sininen kortinveto...'nuff said 10 Skullclamp - menee myös constructediin ...just out of this list: Last Word, Pulse of the Forge (molemmat hyviä kortteja!) Top10 sleeperit: 1 Arcbound Reclaimer - combo 2 Arcbound Slith - beatdown monobrown 3 Coretapper - uusi pakkatyyppi 4 Darksteel Ingot - perusmana 5 Pulse of the Fields - paljon käyttöä uudessa pakkatyypissä 6 Dross Golem - suiciden uusi kortti! 7 Wand of the Elements - UR control comes back 8 Sword of Fire/Ice - setin toinen equipmentti constructediin 9 Vedalken Engineer - liian fast mana jotta huomiotta 10 Serum Powder - combo ...just out of this list: Pristine Angel (voi sittenkin yllättää!) .mikko
