Get 2 Artifacts for the price of 1.


Cards I have found fun to clone with Mirrorworks (Multiple Times!):
Master of Etherium
Unwinding Clock + Steel Overseer
Etched Champion
Darksteel Plate

Also fun:  Etherium Sculptor, Mirrorworks, Seat of the Synod

First off, Mirrorworks' copying ability is a triggered ability, so Etherium Sculptor, which reduces the cost of spells wouldn't affect it. Secondly, you can only copy artifacts once for each artifact you cast. Its very similar to Riku of the Twin Reflections. Otherwise it would have been great. Unfortunately I can't think of anything that reduces triggered abilities for artifacts. If you want more copies, I usually just play sculpting steel, copy it with mirrorworks, and have them both come into play as copies of mirrorworks so you now have three of them.

I didn't say that it reduced the cost of the ability, but a lot of decent and good artifact cards have 2-5 uncolored mana in their cost (barring moxes, artifact lands.  2 Sculptors on the field means for cards like Steel Overseer, you literally do get 2 for the price of normally 1 (barring counterspells of course).  I also know you can only copy each one once (and not tokens).

Dunno how I managed to miss Sculpting Steel, though its more of a 1 time only than compared to mirrorworks

You should have explained that. It seemed like you meant you reduced Mirrorworks cost. That being said, this is pretty cool.

If i'm right, strikerbolt intention is to economize two manas with the sculptor, so he can use two manas "without any cost" to copy any artifact, considering the use of the two manas less in the cost of the artifact. Im my opinion is a very useful combo.
But i'm not certain if ALL ARTIFACT DECKS MUST HAVE ONE, seeing the eternal artifact decks i don't think this combo have a place, maybe in most recent formats... but is only my opinion. In any cases, great combo.^_^

I propose a new MTG card:

Post Transfer 2UU

Target post is moved from Combo forum to General Discussion forum.

This spell cannot be countered.

The good thing about this combo is that it leaves you more mana to copy the artifact.

Mechanist, that's exactly what the combo does. That's the "combo" part of the combo.

Myabe yer right Torto, might not belong in all artifact decks... I really should stop making forum posts at 3am-ish...
