About Armory Automaton

Armory Automaton, Artifact creature — construct, designed by James Paick first released in May, 2020 in the set Commander 2016 and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 35.81.

This card would be a great addition to a white equipment-focused deck in Magic: the Gathering, as it allows you to quickly load up on powerful equipment by attaching them to Armory Automaton for free. While there are other cards like Puresteel Paladin that offer similar benefits, Armory Automaton's ability to attach multiple pieces of equipment at once can provide a significant advantage in the right deck strategy, making it a strong contender for inclusion in such decks.

Rules

11/08/16

Armory Automaton’s ability can cause an Equipment one player controls to become attached to a creature another player controls. The controller of the Equipment can pay the equip cost to move that Equipment to a creature they control, but only any time that player could cast a sorcery. The controller of Armory Automaton can’t pay the equip cost to move Equipment they don’t control.

11/08/16

If Armory Automaton leaves the battlefield before its ability resolves, nothing happens to any of the Equipment it targeted. If they were already attached to other creatures, they remain attached to those creatures.

11/08/16

The triggered ability triggers both when Armory Automaton enters the battlefield and whenever it attacks. You don’t have to choose only one.
