6/6
Wow, that's quite cool.
Vanishing is kinda an aggro ability though, by the time a vanishing-based deck has 12 mana, it's probably run out of steam. Draw cards is certainly good for a vanishing deck though, no doubt it needs to make up for the card disadvantage of the mechanic.
I could see the activated ability alone on a cheaper noncreature artifact, maybe with mana cost 5. I like how that ability can harm opponents or help and your teammates equally.
Corrupted Magistrate1W
Creature — Human Advisor {U} 1, Tap an untapped artifact you control: Tap target creature. "The city you've built here, your greatest strength, shall be your greatest foe."
1/2
Yeah, um... I suppose. Hope it plays nice and fun. At this mana cost and activation cost I worry. Suspect it'll be picked quite highly in draft.
Emissary of the Grid1WW
Creature — Human Artificer {R}
First strike
You may attach Equipment you control to creatures you don't control. (You still control the equipment.)
2/2
Funny combo with Steamcaller's Rig. An interesting dud rare.
Airship Captain2U
Creature — Human Artificer {U}
Flying
Whenever Airship Captain attacks, if it's equipped, target creature you control gains flying until end of turn. "All aboard to Durnswick! All aboard!"
2/2
Sewer Scrapper1B
Creature — Human Rogue {U}
Sewer Scrapper can't block.
When Sewer Scrapper dies, you may return target artifact card from your graveyard to your hand. "It's not pretty, but we make do with what we can."
2/1
Yeah, alright, that's interesting. I'd have to playtest it to see if it would work the way we hope it'd work. Seems like it might.
Blacksmoke Demon4BB
Creature — Demon {R}
Flying B: Sacrifice Blacksmoke Demon. If you do, return a creature card named Blacksmoke Demon from your graveyard to the battlefield at the beginning of the next end step.
5/5
Huh. That's a very interesting form of regeneration/blinking. I'd like to see a smaller version of this at common or uncommon, because it's makes me sad to think of pulling this thing in draft and being unable to proper use its very cool ability.
Vicious Yaphound1R
Creature — Hound {C}
Vicious Yaphound can't be blocked by creatures with power 2 or less.
2/1
A nice red counterpart to blue's Sneaky Homunculus and such. A bit strong though. This is very effective evasion for a two cost two power creature. Might be better as an uncommon.
Hand of the Resistance3R
Creature — Human Warrior Rebel {U}
Haste 2R: Hand of the Resistance gets +X/+X until end of turn, where X is the number of artifacts your opponents control.
2/2
Hmm. [X] matters mechanics bore me a bit, especially when they're so blatant. I feel a hoser could have been implemented more naturally.
I dunno, that's a lot about this that just isn't my kinda card.
Nexus of the Resistance2R
Creature — Human Warrior Rebel {R}
Activated abilities of Rebels you control cost 2 less to activate.
You may activate abilities of Rebel creatures you control as if those creatures had haste.
3/2
I like rebel-searching, except for the goddamn shuffling. Jesus with the shuffling! Nice design though. Very nice.
Persecuted Druid1G
Creature — Human Druid Rebel {C} G,T: Target creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn. His teachings go unwanted, but his lessons are still learned.
2/2
Creeping IvyGG
Creature — Plant {R}
Trample
Creeping Ivy gets +1/+1 for each Ivy counter on a permanent.
At the beginning of your upkeep, put an Ivy counter on target artifact without an Ivy counter on it.
0/1
Of course, I'm sure you know perfectly well all those arguments against this kinda book-keeping.
Commuter Zeppelin4U
Artifact — Equipment {U}
Creatures you control have flying.
Equipped creature gets +3/+3.
Equip 3
Yeah... I dunno, the flavor sure seems weird here, and it's odd mechanically as well. There had to be a zeppelin though, so here it is. A bit of a lead zeppelin though, in the way it doesn't fly with me.
Grafted Tank Hammer 4
Artifact - Equipment
Equipped creature gets +6/+1 and has trample.
When Grafted Tank Hammer becomes attached to a creature, put a -1/-1 counter on that creature.
Equip 4
Hey, that's pretty interesting. I don't know that the -1/-1 counter is going to matter much of the time, since once this is equipped you want to keep it equipped anyway. Of course, you'll want to equip elsewhere is the creature dies, but still the counter doesn't matter in that case either.
Something could be done with the general idea though, I'm sure.
Ah, this mechanic might have some merit. They say, though, that drawback mechanics don't tend to be popular or inspiring. This is understandable, no? Putting a word on a lot of cards that only functions as a limitation doesn't really get the juices flowing.
Goblin Slugger-Wrench2
Artifact- Equipment (R)
Equipped creature gets +2/+0
Equipped creature has "T, Sacrifice two artifacts: Return target artifact card from your graveyard to your hand."
Equip 3 "Ah, just smash a couple of these whatchits together, and you got a brand new whosamajiggy!"
I approve of your username.
Nice first entry, quite good, actually. Not much of a rare, would be sad to pull this as a rare. Uncommon would make sense, maybe. I like that the wrench gives you the option to toss itself as part of the cost if really need be to grab something vital.
Nortoric Magnet2
[U]Artifact[/U] [u] 3, T: Gain control of target artifact. Nortoric Magnet can't untap while it's on the battlefield. When it leaves the battlefield, untap Nortoric Magnet.
Solid, playable, printable. Not too original, but likable.
Purity-C133BW
Legendary Artifact Creature - Angel
Flying, Exalted, Lifelink
At the beginning of your upkeep, target player loses 2 life and you gain 2 life. "Humans in sector A7. Cleansing will commence."
4/4
Gotta love metal angels. An evocative staple of MTG.
This card is cool and all that. Might drop the exalted, it's just a little busy.
Vicious, Rebel Leader2RU
Legendary Creature - Human Rebel
When ~ comes into play draw a card and discard a card.
All other Rebels you control have protection from Artifacts.
3/3
The world suggested intrigues me. The card feels too much like it's trying to fill up space in a set.
Hydrogen Dirigible3
Artifact Creature - Construct (u)
Flying.
When Hydrogen Dirigible becomes the target of a spell or ability, sacrifice it. If you do, Hydrogen Dirigible does 2 damage to each creature and player. "Sure it's dangerous but this cutting edge technology will revolutionize travel, you mark my words."
2/3
Gotta have dem dirigibles in da steampunkland.
A clever card, useful in its popability, though also risky.
Hasten Clock6UR
Enchantment (R)
When Hasten Clock enters the battlefield choose a phase:untap, draw, upkeep, precombat main phase, combat phase, postcombat main phase, or end step.
Players skip those phases.
It doesn't need to cost quite that much. Although, the control-strength of being able to stop draws or untaps certainly warrants a high price.
Chooses one main phase or the other won't have much effect will it? But, at least, it's not as mean as shutting both off would be.
This card doesn't seem very fun, and its uses are limited.
Rogue of Dungeons (U/B)(U/B)x
creature- rogue [r]
Shroud
When Rogue of dungeons enters the battlefield you may search your library for x trap cards and put them into your graveyard.
You may cast trap cards from your graveyard as if they were in your hand.
1/x+2
Um, being able to cast the same instants and sorceries from your graveyard repeatedly brings with it the real chance of breaking the game.
If you exiled the traps and were able to cast those exiled traps as long as the rogue was on the table, that would be a bit less scary.
Cybernetic Heart2
Artifact {MR}
Hexproof
Cybernetic Heart enters the battlefield with charge counters equal to your life total.
Whenever you would lose life, remove that many charge counters from Cybernetic Heart instead.
When there are no charge counters on Cybernetic heart, if it is on the battlefield, you lose the game.
OMG, so breakable. Geez with the hexproof, that's just icing on the broken-ass cake, my good sir. Two mana? So, drop this when you still have 17 or more life, absorb damage for awhile, bounce it to your hand then replay while you still have 17 life...
Megiddo Vs Rudyard, in which Megiddo is Ravnica and Rudyard is Alara2
Tribal Artifact Sorcery - Worm Wurm Forest Aura
Target Megiddo fights target Rudyard. Megiddo wins.
In the mean time I'm holding.

That's an awkward power/toughness imbalance at common. Might make things slightly difficult to keep track of. It's otherwise OK.
Yeah, um... I suppose. Hope it plays nice and fun. At this mana cost and activation cost I worry. Suspect it'll be picked quite highly in draft.
Funny combo with Steamcaller's Rig. An interesting dud rare.
A sensible colorshift. Sadly, this one can't block and then regenerate itself. But, it's common where Metallurgeon is uncommon. So, yeah, OK.
Hmm.
Makes sense, I guess.
Cool, I like it. I could see these kinda thing being implemented a lot of different ways as well.
Intimidate is an icky mechanic, IMHO.
Yeah, alright, that's interesting. I'd have to playtest it to see if it would work the way we hope it'd work. Seems like it might.
