Phyrexian Ironworks: Forge the Future
Phyrexian Ironworks arrives as a compact two mana red artifact that fits into fast, proactive strategies. Its attack trigger rewards aggression by generating energy counters, a resource you can burn to fuel this forge’s next move. For {2}{R}, you can create a 3/3 colorless Phyrexian Golem artifact creature token by paying energy, and the ability can be activated only as a sorcery. This keeps your turns disciplined while you push for a decisive board presence.
The design leans into tempo and resource management, rewarding attackers with ongoing value and a scalable payoff. The flavor text grounds the forge in a grim practicality, with the line We have made a friend today spoken by Slobad, Iron Goblin, reminding you that even alliance in the ironworks comes at a price.
