Description
Identified by card number 128 and set code MH1, this creature card carries a mana cost of {1}{R} and boasts a mana value of 2. Players control a 1/2 power and toughness unit that fits seamlessly into red-based decks seeking efficient artifact synergy. Goblin Engineer’s design supports strategic depth through two distinct abilities. Upon entering the battlefield, the card allows you to search your library for an artifact card, place it into your graveyard, and then shuffle. This effect provides immediate access to resources while setting up future plays. Alternatively, you can activate its second ability by tapping the creature and sacrificing an artifact to return a target artifact card with a mana value of 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield. This recurring value makes it a reliable engine for artifact-centric strategies. The foil treatment adds a premium visual appeal to the card, distinguishing it within the Modern Horizons set. Collectors and players alike appreciate the versatility this card offers, whether building competitive decks or expanding a personal collection. The artwork by Jehan Choo complements the mechanical utility, creating a well-rounded piece for any Magic: The Gathering enthusiast. For investors and hobbyists, the combination of functional gameplay and attractive foil finish makes this card a notable entry in the Modern Horizons catalog. It represents a key component for those interested in artifact synergy and goblin tribal themes. As part of the broader Modern Horizons series, it holds a place in the history of Magic: The Gathering expansions, appealing to both long-time veterans and new collectors looking to complete their sets.
