Every now and then, I get the opportunity to take part in some focus group study work, and from the bit I received doing so, I put a few dollars aside to try and finish a few Magic artifact sets from older sets that may be a few dollars more than I usually spend. Picked these up from 401 Games of course, but let's take a look.
The last cards I needed to finish off the artifact sets for Urza's Destiny, Apocalypse, and what was supposed to be Guildpact - but I am still missing one as I coded one incorrectly but then also a few other artifacts which get sets a bit closer. Urza's Incubator and Masticore are the two big cards and finish off the artifact set - about $24 and $11 dollars for each of the two cards - more than I usually spend, but since it was "free money", happy to get the last couple cards for Urza's Destiny.
The Incubator card is a rare and has a great ability, which is why it has some value - being able to reduce the cost on a card, by two, really speeds up how quickly you can churn out the cards and speed up play, very cool.
As for Masticore, the ability to do unlimited damage by paying mana, for an artifact deck or any that can create a bunch of mana, is a great ability too.
Definitely a worthwhile bunch to purchase and some solid cards I didn't have before.
