Looks like a card that could make sense in vintage or whatever.
I've been thinking about the whole 'all creatures are artifacts' angle, and it doesn't really do anything in the environment except change some words. I guess
gets creature destruction now and 
gets creature recursion / cost reduction, but I can't think of much else. IMO it should have some more interesting takes on it, as in how it would affect the gameplay in a more major way. Otherwise a creature being an artifact is just throwaway gimmick / trinket text.
Like, this card is pretty much a bad Negate now that we think about it, but did it really change anything? It would if it existed outside the set, but in this set it's meaningless in that it just imitates something else.
Maybe there should be some kind of counter balance to this... Like land creatures or something so that all creatures aren't artifacts. How about awaken as a keyword? ... or something such.
I would at least heavily play into how colors traditional work with artifacts, such as the aforementioned
's affinity with them.
Either of us is missing something. The key phrase here is interviewing clause:
> ..., if enchanted creature is untapped, ...
Meaning that the Aura's ability won't trigger if it wouldn't do anything since the creature is already tapped. Let's repeat this: so the only difference is that the Aura's ability won't trigger when it wouldn't don't anything and we won't have to click through an unnecessary trigger in MTG Online or whatever. It wouldn't prompt any less actions/triggers regarding the enchanted creature's state such as being tapped/untapped since the ability wouldn't affect the creature in any way if it's already tapped - whether the Aura's ability triggered or not.
Cute. Are there any nonartifact creatures at all?
"destroy target noncreature permanent that's an artifact and/or enchantment" is a safe bet.
Independent of whether it works as intended by accident, you shouldn't leave a text that leaves the user scratching their head stand.
Ambiguity needs to be resolved not only from a rules perspective.
I like that the illustration suggests the flavor text "3rd Party Hosting has been temporarily disabled."
It really fits.
This is the kind of spell that will really be problematic outside of the (Limited) environment it is intended for.
I imagine it could be fine in this set, but it's a strict upgrade to Revolutionary Rebuff.
Right. So if the creature untaps during the untap step and is immediately tapped again during the upkeep, that will make clockwork trigger. Which is what I want.
... but the triggers that would be skipped are the ones that don't do anything? If a permanent is already tapped, it doesn't 'become tapped' again.
> 603.2d Some trigger events use the word "becomes" (for example, "becomes attached" or "becomes blocked")...
> Example: An ability that triggers when a permanent "becomes tapped" triggers only when the status of a permanent that's already on the battlefield changes from untapped to tapped.
Kosmengeve aren't blue
The triggers were intentional. Clockwork, the main mechanic of the set, triggers whenever the permanent becomes tapped, so this card gets a bonus interaction there.
I would recommend using the Narcolepsy template to avoid all the unnecessary triggers.
This sets looks like it has a nice foundation set up for it.
Maybe you could look for inspiration in other steam punk custom sets done over the years. The one that I always recall is called "Archester: Frontier of Steam". I think twobrid works really well to represent steam.
rarity fix
On a scale of Righteous Blow to Gideon's Reproach to Sandblast, I'm not sure where this belongs. Testing will show if it needs to cost more.
