Chromatic Star Artifact Card in Magic the Gathering

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village and today we'll be discussing artifacts from Magic the Gathering. Now I'm going to go over Chromatic Star. Chromatic Star is a very important artifact. It's in the basic set. It's been in the basic set for quite some time. It is an uncommon artifact and Chromatic Star costs one to play. Now, this card is a built in response for those who wish to have a multi-colored deck that has a lot of colors in it. What this does is, that you pay one, you tap Chromatic Star and you sacrifice Chromatic Star and you get to add one manna of any color to your manna pool. Once again, this is very good because it allows the people who do not have the manna they need in multi-colored decks to play cards that they have in their hand. Also, as an additional ability to this card, since you do have to sacrifice it, it's going to give you a bonus. This bonus is, when Chromatic Star is put into a graveyard from play, you get to draw a card. So, not only did you get to use a manna that you didn't have, or you get to change the manna that you put in your manna pool into a different color, but you also get to draw a card when this goes to the graveyard. Very, very powerful card."
