Unstable Amulet: Chaos You Can Tap
Unstable Amulet from Modern Horizons 3 is a compact red artifact that trades raw power for a small energy engine. For {1}{R}, it hits the battlefield and immediately grants you two energy counters, creating a handy resource buffer to lean on in the early turns. If you cast a spell from anywhere other than your hand, the amulet lashes back with 1 damage to each opponent, a reminder that your nonhand plays can tilt the pace of the game. The design invites a practical, tempo oriented approach, rewarding clever sequencing and timely exploitation of your extra energy.
With the bottom ability you can tap to pay two energy counters to exile the top card of your library. You may play it until you exile another card with Unstable Amulet, which lets you chain plays from the top of your deck while keeping mana under control. In a Light Play foil version, thisMH3 piece feels satisfying to use and visually distinct on the table, making it a reliable tool for red artifact shells that value efficiency and resilience.
