Chipper Chopper

Description

The 2017 Magic: The Gathering Unstable foil Chipper Chopper card (number 28) stands out in the set as a distinct Artifact Creature — Cyborg Rigger. Designed by Dmitry Burmak, this card brings a whimsical yet mechanical presence to the chaotic humor characteristic of the Unstable expansion. As a Common rarity print with a foil finish, it offers collectors a visually appealing entry point into the world of Magic's experimental designs. Chipper Chopper is defined by its utility and thematic role within the game. With a mana cost of {3}{U} and a mana value of 4, this blue-colored creature enters the battlefield as a 1/1 body with flying. Its primary strength lies in its triggered ability: when it enters, players may sacrifice another artifact to place two +1/+1 counters on it. This action also triggers the assembly of a Contraption, allowing the top card of a Contraption deck to be placed face-up onto a sprocket. This mechanic encourages interactive gameplay, rewarding players for building artifact-based strategies. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards often seek out foil versions of cards from the Unstable set due to their unique artwork and the set's non-canonical, humorous nature. The foil treatment adds a layer of shine and durability that enhances its visual appeal on the table or in a collection binder. Whether you are a player looking to build contraption-focused decks or a collector appreciating the creative card designs of 2017, this Chipper Chopper foil represents a fun and functional piece of TCG history. Its status as a Cyborg Rigger makes it a memorable piece for enthusiasts of the game's more unconventional eras.
