Onslaught - a Complete Review (artifact)Tap two untapped creatures you control: You may put a creature card from your hand into play that shares a creature type with each creature tapped this way. Its lock changes to fit each key. ==> FUN: 4 Not bad for a theme deck, especially if the creature type has both weenies and fatties. -- 307. Doom Cannon 6, Artifact Rare As Doom Cannon comes into play, choose a creature type. 3, T, Sacrifice a creature of the chosen type: Doom Cannon deals 3 damage to target creature or player. ==> FUN: 3 A slight variation on Fodder Cannon. -- 308. Dream Chisel 2, Artifact Rare Face-down creature spells you play cost 1 less to play. Itself a product of Ixidor's tortured psyche, the chisel brings his darkest dreams to life. ==> FUN: 2 It's not worth it just to save 1 mana when playing 2/2s. It'd be more useful if it also decreased morph costs. -- 309. Riptide Replicator X4, Artifact Rare As Riptide Replicator comes into play, choose a color and a creature type. Riptide Replicator comes into play with X charge counters on it. 4, T: Put an X/X creature token of the chosen color and type into play, where X is the number of charge counters on Riptide Replicator. ==> FUN: 4 Phyrexian Processor meets Volrath's Laboratory. Not bad, if you have enough mana to get big tokens out of it. Especially if you can also put the chosen creature type to good use, like having a Wirewood Savage in play and choosing beast or Wellwisher and choosing elf. -- 310. Slate of Ancestry 4, Artifact Rare 4, T, Discard your hand: Draw a card for each creature you control. The pattern of life can be studied like a book, if you know how to read it. ==> FUN: 4 Nice if your Symbiotic Wurm just got killed. It's not a card you'll want to use every turn, though. -- 311. Tribal Golem 6, Artifact Creature - Golem 4/4 Rare Tribal Golem has trample as long as you control a Beast, haste as long as you control a Goblin, first strike as long as you control a Soldier, flying as long as you control a Wizard, and "B: Regenerate Tribal Golem" as long as you control a Zombie. ==> FUN: 4 Once all its abilities are active, Tribal Golem is a good creature. Before that, it's a bit overcosted, but it'll be an interesting challenge to build a deck with all five creature types. There are a few creatures in Onslaught with several types, so it shouldn't be that hard. |
