Description
The Metalwork Colossus stands as a formidable presence in Magic: The Gathering's 2016 Kaladesh expansion, identified as card number 222. This foil rare features a mana value of 11, transforming into a massive 10/10 Artifact Creature — Construct. Designed by Jaime Jones, this card represents the industrial aesthetic of the Kaladesh plane, appealing to collectors who appreciate the detailed world-building of the era. For players and collectors alike, understanding the unique mechanics of this card is essential. The Metalwork Colossus allows for significant mana reduction when casting, based on the total mana value of noncreature artifacts you control. This mechanic encourages strategic deck construction focused on artifact synergy. Additionally, it offers a powerful retrieval option by sacrificing two artifacts to return from the graveyard to hand, providing resilience in prolonged games. Collectors often seek out the foil version for its shimmering finish and high card number, which can make it a challenging addition to complete Kaladesh sets. The distinct construct type and high mana cost make it a memorable piece for any Magic: The Gathering collection. Whether you are building a themed deck or expanding your library of rare cards, the Metalwork Colossus offers both strategic depth and visual interest.
