Why? Making it 2 was going to be crazy strong in mirrodin?
Now is like the ugly small brother
And I'm not complaining that they didn't got Christopher moeller to do the art

In the artifact set, maybe, but they weren't expecting the shitshow that was affinity
Notice it's Common instead of Uncommon.
It would've been a huge pain in Limited as a common that prevented 2 damage from each artifact source. Probably some fuckery from Development.

I may don't know the process of selecting rarities...
But why not make it 2 damage, and then make it uncommon like it's brothers...

Because it was draft tech, and you want that shit as low a rarity as possible. Thematics also played a part.

thematic because artifacts were to strong and everywhere?
