About Bastion Inventor

Bastion Inventor, Creature — vedalken artificer, designed by Tony Foti first released in May, 2020 in the set Aether Revolt and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3.34.

A deck that focuses on artifact synergy and ramp would benefit from including Bastion Inventor, as it can be cast more easily with the Improvise ability and provides protection with Hexproof. However, there are potentially better options such as Steel Overseer or Etched Champion, which offer more impactful abilities or protection. Whether Bastion Inventor should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck it is being considered for.

Rules

02/09/17

Because improvise isn’t an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs.

02/09/17

Improvise can’t be used to pay for anything other than the cost of casting the spell. For example, it can’t be used during the resolution of an ability that says “Counter target spell unless its controller pays .”

02/09/17

Improvise doesn’t change a spell’s mana cost or converted mana cost.

02/09/17

Tapping an artifact won’t cause its abilities to stop applying unless those abilities say so.
