Title: Artifact sets?
Post by: MisterJH on December 24, 2012, 07:07:14 PM
What set will get me the most artifact power/affinity cards? I like big creatures, or a ton of mana for cards like {clockwork dragon}. To give you an idea, im looking for {arcbound ravager} {master of etherium} {darksteel juggernaut} {mycosynth golem} and myr cards, to name a few. Some sets and what cards would come from them related to my wants would be GREATLY appreciated, as i plan on ordering a booster box within 3 days.

No specific set, but the first Mirrodin block and the second Mirrodin block (5th Dawn/Darksteel/Mirrodin and Mirrodin Besieged/Scars of Mirrodin/New Phyrexia) were the heaviest artifact sets.

{Darksteel Colossus} is likely the largest of Artifact creatures. I personally love {Wurmcoil Engine}, he constitutes one of my favorite ever.

You could - and this is just a theory - tap the cards you linked and look at the sets they came from.

Sarcasm is always appreciate, but maybe if you paid attention those are just examples and might not come from the best set for what i want, maybe theyre the only useful cards in the whole set? That wouldnt help me out one bit. Good theory though.

And yes, wurmcoil is possibly my favorite ever. Unfortunately mirrodin/scars of mirrodin deck boxes are obscenely expensive, and i am not willing to spend that. So it looks like ill stick to singles an maybe an innistrad box. Oh well.

The Urza block was artifact based.
