About Auto-Key

Auto-Key, Artifact — contraption, designed by Jason Felix first released in Dec, 2017 in the set Unstable. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.69.

This card would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on artifact synergies or lifegain strategies, as it can turn a creature into an artifact to trigger related abilities and provide a consistent source of life gain. However, there are more efficient cards that offer similar effects, such as Liquimetal Coating or Basilisk Collar, which may be better options depending on the specific deck strategy. Overall, while Auto-Key may have niche uses, it may not see widespread play in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks.

Rules

01/19/18

Contraptions are artifacts. Anything that interacts with artifacts will interact with Contraptions.

01/19/18

If you crank multiple Contraptions, their abilities can be put onto the stack in any order. The ability put onto the stack will resolve first.

01/19/18

If you or a permanent you control are instructed to assemble a Contraption, reveal the top card of your Contraption deck. Put it onto the battlefield on one of the three sprockets.

01/19/18

If you or a permanent you control assembles a Contraption and your Contraption deck is empty, nothing happens. You don’t lose the game.

01/19/18

In Constructed formats, a Contraption deck must have at least fifteen different Contraption cards and no more than one of each.

01/19/18

In silver-bordered games using Contraptions, you have three sprockets, illustrated on the back of Contraption cards. At the start of the game, put a CRANK! counter on sprocket 3.
