What section of the Card Type is used by Semblance Anvil?

Asked by Kisho 14 years ago

Hey, with Semblance Anvil , what part of the exiled card's Card Type is actually used?

For example, if I used it on an Iron Myr , would the discount apply only to other Artifact Creature - Myrs (Silver Myr ), to all Artifact Creatures (Triskelion ), or to all Artifacts in general? (Contagion Engine )

It applies to all card types on the card. So if you exile they Myr, then all creatures AND all artifacts will be 2 cheaper to cast.

Note that with the wording of the ability, it only applies once. So even if you exile a Myr, when you cast your next artifact creature you only get 2 off - you don't get 2 for each shared type, just 2 off as long as a type is shared.

@supernick,

Only if a sorcery (for Fireball ) or an instant (for Comet Storm ) were imprinted on it.

If an Iron Myr is imprinted on the Semblance Anvil neither Fireball or Comet Storm would get a reduction in their cost.

Also if an instant is imprinted on Semblance Anvil the Comet Storm storm doesn't necessarily get 2 free damage, it could also use the reduction to gain two additional targets.
