Master Splicer

Description

Released in 2011 as part of the New Phyrexia set, Master Splicer (card number 16) is an Uncommon white card that serves as a vital engine for artifact-based decks in Magic: The Gathering. Illustrated by Chippy and coded NPH, this card represents the Phyrexian invasion's technological dominance through its Phyrexian Human Artificer type line. With a mana cost of {3}{W}, it offers efficient board presence by generating a 3/3 colorless Phyrexian Golem artifact creature token upon entering the battlefield. Beyond the initial token, Master Splicer provides ongoing value by granting +1/+1 to all Golems you control, amplifying the threat level of your army. Collectors appreciate this card for its clear mechanical identity and its role in defining the gothic-industrial aesthetic of the New Phyrexia era. The flavor text reflects the sects perfecting their visions as victory neared, adding narrative depth to the gameplay. As a staple in artifact synergies, Master Splicer remains a favorite among players who enjoy constructing resilient, token-heavy strategies. Its straightforward yet impactful design makes it a memorable piece of Magic history, appealing to both competitive players and set completists looking for key pieces of the New Phyrexia expansion.
