Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Clockwork Beast is a classic slow-burn artifact threat that best supports value-oriented control or midrange shells, where time and mana are resources you can convert into a steadily growing win condition. It enters with seven +1/+0 counters, so it can swing for a respectable seven immediately, but its 0/4 body and the combat-triggered counter loss mean it is built to be managed rather than recklessly traded. The upkeep-only activated ability lets you refill its counters before your draw step, making it especially attractive in decks that can protect it and keep mana open early. Pair it with untap effects, artifact synergies, or cards that reward high toughness and noncreature artifact presence; in particular, any shell that can repeatedly attack while preserving board control will get the most from it. The creature feels like a literal winding machine—powerful when carefully maintained, but gradually wearing down if you overextend it.
