Magic the gathering question

Question

Hello all,

I am looking for a card that destroys all artifacts. Is there such a card? and, what is the name of it? Thanks for the assistance.

Answer 1

The simplest answer would be Shatterstorm.  It's a sorcery that costs 2rr.  It's in Xth edition so it should be pretty easy to get.

Roaring Slagwurm (5gg) is a walking Shatterstorm that happens every time he attacks (6/4).

Retract costs U and will return all artifacts back to their owner's hand.  Short term way of getting around artifacts.

Pulverize costs 4RR but you can speed it up by sacrificing 2 mountains you control.  They can be tapped mountains.

Kataki, War's Wage makes them pay 1 for each artifact they want to keep.  If they have too many artifacts out, they will have to pick and choose which ones they keep.  This is also helpful since they won't have mana open during their other phases.

Those are just a few.  Here is a more complete list.  Some of the cards destroy more than just artifacts though.

Answer 2

There's an artifact card called Kill Switch that you can tap and leave it tapped to tap all artifacts and leave them tapped as long as Kill Switch is.

Answer 3

There are any number of cards in Magic’s past that destroys all artifacts. Off the top of my head, I can remember a few of the more prominent ones: In standard right now, there is Austere Command. In Extended, there is Plague Boiler from Ravnica, Roaring Slagwurm from Mirrodin, Pulverize, Obliterate, and many others. In Legacy and Vintage there is the all-powerful Nivenyrral’s Disk.

Hope that helped!
