Darksteel Colossus

Sudden Spoiling Mechanics

New 21 Nov 2019 Asked by troacctid 30 Comments

Re: Sudden Spoiling, before Indestructible became a keyword, it could remove an ability that said "CARDNAME is indestructible," as seen on Darksteel Colossus, but if the indestructibility was granted by another card's effect, such as Darksteel Forge, it would remain.

Woo, it's my birthday! 30th Specifically :D May I have some trivia on my favourite creature, Darksteel Colossus, or on indestructible in the set Darksteel please?


I created indestructible by answering the following question “What do players dislike?” with the answer “Having their stuff destroyed”. Happy Birthday!

Categorizing Eldrazi

I think some people find it strange to put mind bending, planeswalking eldrazi in the same category as, say, a Runeclaw Bear, or even Darksteel Colossus. A creature seems too mundane for their flavour.


Magic has only six boxes to choose from.

Blightsteel Colossus Trivia

New 12 Feb 2015 Asked by joshthewizardking 79 Comments

Maro it's my birthday Could I have some trivia about my favourite card, blightsteel colossus?


I created Blightsteel Colossus as the ultimate sign of the Phyrexians victory on Mirrodin. If they could take over Darksteel Colossus, the Mirran’s greatest weapon, what hope did they have? I made the card for New Phyrexia but Mirrodin Besieged was looking for a splashy card and took it. (Earlier sets are allowed to steal from sets that come later.)Happy Birthday!

Artwork Oddity

New 09 Dec 2013 Asked by pwnylawyer 48 Comments

Why does Blightsteel Colossus have a corrupted Platinum Emperion in its art rather than a corrupted Darksteel Colossus. You're usually really good at owning up to/explaining oddities like that, but every time Blightsteel Colossus is mentioned as the marquee card of the set, no mention is made of its incorrect art.


This is more of a question for Doug. Best guess is that it wasn’t clear to the artist that it was a corrupted Darksteel Colossus.

Any trivia on Blightsteel or Darksteel colossus?


I made Blightsteel Colossus as a high profile card for New Phyrexia. R&D decided that Mirrodin Beseiged needed it more so it was moved back a set.
