So I'm trying to make an artifact block, with three color-aligned mechanics.
For black, I have:
Drain {X} (Each creature you sacrifice while casting this spell reduces its cost by {X}. When this [creature/permanent] enters the battlefield, put X drain counters on it, where X is the number of creatures it drained.)
I think I have enough design space for that. It's the blue and red abilities I'm worried about:
Machinate (3: Put a wire counter on target creature. That creature is an artifact in addition to its other types as long as it has a wire counter.)
-the cards would have interactions either when they machinate something or how many wire counters are there, etc.-
Protocol (When this creature attacks, it gains all the abilities of each other attacking artifact creature.)
-Most of the protocol creatures are utility low-drops with haste and another ability, but this is the ability I'm having the most trouble with, since I don't know the best way to go about making a red artifact ability.-
Could I have your input here? D:
