About Artificial Evolution

Artificial Evolution, Instant, designed by Greg Staples first released in Oct, 2002 in the set Onslaught. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 1.84. It's a key card in 4 combos.

This card, Artificial Evolution, would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on tribal synergies, such as Merfolk, Elves, or Goblins, as it can disrupt an opponent's strategy by changing creature types to something less advantageous for them. However, in terms of versatility and impact, cards like Crib Swap or Imagecrafter may be better options as they offer more flexibility and immediate impact on the board. Artificial Evolution could see play in certain niche strategies or sideboard tech, but may not be a staple in most competitive decks due to its situational nature.
