Ogre Metalcrafter

Not sure how balanced/imbalanced this is, but I figure posting my first idea would be a good idea. New Affinity cards. I'll take whatever criticisms come, so maybe through bad custom cards I can learn what good cards actually are. So I can start making decks on my own.

Genuinely could be a safe 6RR. Broodstar is a bit better than this. And it really depends what environment you intend this to be in. An environment with really cheap artifacts and artifact lands like Mirrodin might want it more expensive. A grindier, midrangey Limited environment could have it lower.

Well, like I said, this would be one card in a set to bring back the Affinity ability. So I would include some cheap artifacts to make the sets work. And cards with Affinity for other card types.

It gets all complicated when you start mixing up affinity types. I can only assume that you mean, like, Affinity for Plains/other land type. Anything else is silly.

If that's the case, I should make the set (at least the Affinity part of it) either for artifacts or for Mountains. Considering this guy is red, it makes sense.

If your primary mechanic of a set is artifacts, then the primary affinity should be artifacts. Assuming that all five colours have that theme, then all five colours can get Affinity for (insert basic land type here).

(see the Affinity Golems from Darksteel).

Updated the card with new stats.
