Urza, Chief Artificer

Description

The 2023 Magic Online Promo release highlights Urza, Chief Artificer as a central figure for artifact-focused strategies. As a six-mana legendary Human Artificer, this card carries the B, U, W color identity and offers a unique blend of aggression and resource generation. The foil mythic rare finish distinguishes this promo card number 105796 within the broader Magic Online Promos catalog. The card’s design leverages the affinity mechanic, reducing its casting cost by {1} for each artifact creature you control. This allows players to deploy the threat earlier in the game, capitalizing on its menacing presence. Once on the battlefield, artifact creatures controlled by the player gain menace, forcing opponents to block multiple threats or take damage. This pressure is compounded by the card’s end-step ability, which creates 0/0 colorless Construct tokens that grow in power and toughness based on the total number of artifacts controlled. This recursive engine makes the card a cornerstone for decks aiming to overwhelm opponents with a growing army of artifact creatures. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards often seek out this promo for its high-rarity status and thematic relevance to the Urza storyline. For investors and hobbyists alike, the combination of mythic rarity and the enduring popularity of the artifact archetype ensures this card remains a significant piece for any collection. The promo format itself offers a distinct aesthetic compared to standard set releases, making it a desirable addition for those completing the Magic Online Promos subset. Whether used in gameplay or held as a collector’s item, this card represents a pivotal moment in the game’s history of legendary creatures.
