Im sure this otter artificer helps some sort of massive token combo deck win a turn faster, which isnt nothing, but I continue to find better cards than this to slot into my decks
If you have a way to also discount your red spells, Birgi helps you even generate excess mana to potentially cast your whole deck
For example, if you control Johann, Apprentice Sorcerer ("Once each turn, you may cast an instant or sorcery spell from the top of your library") and Kellan, Daring Traveler is on top of your library, you can cast Journey On, but not Kellan, Daring Traveler
Sounds very red
The game has been around since 1993, and since then, the company has released 2-3 sets per year
Then you can sacrifice the creature when you activate mana abilities just before paying the cost
