Item Description

Artifact-heavy tables have a way of turning every combat into a wall of Constructs, Myr and equipped bruisers. Tower of the Magistrate is a quiet answer hiding in your land base. It taps for colorless mana like any utility land, and for one more mana plus a tap it gives target creature protection from artifacts until end of turn.

Protection packs a lot into one keyword. The chosen creature can't be blocked by artifact creatures, damage from artifact sources is prevented, and it can't be targeted by artifact abilities, so the same activation can push an attacker past a robot army or shield a creature from an artifact's targeted effect. Keep in mind that Equipment is an artifact too, so it will fall off a creature you protect. In Commander games full of mana rocks, artifact creatures and colorless threats, a land that does all this without costing a spell slot earns its place.

This is the Mercadian Masques printing from 1999, collector number 330, illustrated by Thomas Gianni, in non-foil. Its flavor text takes a dry swipe at the city of Mercadia itself: "Like the city, weakest at its foundation."
