Description

Karn, the Great Creator (SLD-253) is a Legendary Planeswalker that interacts primarily with artifacts and was released in the Secret Lair Drop set. Its static ability prevents opponents from activating activated abilities of their artifacts, and it has loyalty abilities that can animate a noncreature artifact and retrieve an artifact card from outside the game or exile. The card functions as a toolbox and lock piece in artifact- or colorless-focused decks, offering both disruption and a way to fetch specific artifact answers.
