Do you guys think that contraptions will be next block? I have waited a long time collecting steamflogger boss for when contraptions are big, but of course like all of you I do not know how good it will in it's current environment.

A contraption could be a type of artifact that acts like a werewolf, and assembling it could flip to the backside that a different effect

The "riggers" would be creatures have costly activated abilities, and be kinda tribal, and all interact with contraptions.

some example cards i thot of are these:
I have found pictures of these. The pre transformed one would be it just sorta sitting there covered in junk, while the transformed version would in action.

You seem to be assuming that not only will contraptions be printed (which is questionable), but that they will be big. I don't think many people are willing to jump to such a conclusion.

People posting their own made-up magic cards always puts me in mind of people doing armchair psychology, in that in each case what they're putting on the table is almost always pure crap, intensely boring to read, and largely wrong.

Contraptions aren't happening. Steamflogger Boss was a joke.

There is nothing that suggests Double-faced cards are anything but a mechanic for the Innistrad block specifically. In fact, there is a wealth of evidence confirming that double-faced cards are not an evergreen mechanic and thus will probably only appear in the innistrad block.

Well you should probably invest more money into steamflogger bosses then.

I'm sure it will pay off eventually!!
