About Gift Horse

Gift Horse, 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 15.42.

A deck focusing on generating token creatures and taking advantage of dice rolling mechanics would benefit from including Gift Horse in their strategy, especially if they can support and protect their Goblin tokens effectively. While Gift Horse has potential in casual or fun-focused games, similar cards like Goblin Slider or Goblin Barrage may offer more consistent benefits for competitive play due to their direct impact on the board state or potential for removal.

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.
