About Hard Hat Area
Hard Hat Area, Artifact — contraption, designed by Steve Prescott first released in Dec, 2017 in the set Unstable. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 1.37.
A deck that focuses on Contraption synergy, like a silver-border Unstable deck, would benefit from including Hard Hat Area as it provides an effective way to assemble multiple Contraptions quickly. However, there may be better cards to consider, such as Whir of Invention in a blue artifact-centric deck, which allows you to tutor for a specific artifact, providing more consistency and control. While Hard Hat Area can be fun in casual play, its situational utility and randomness may limit its competitive viability in more strategic formats.
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.
