Uses the same trigger as the infamous Disciple of the Vault, although this guy isn't that broken ;)

Too bad it doesn't assemble any contraptions.

For thouse that don't know what people mean by a-ssembling contraptions. Kitsunewarlock and Forgeling are just being sarcastic, they are making refrence to this card: steamflogger boss.

The important part it, this means changelings are riggers!!! Not like they assemble contraptions or anything, but still....

Huh. Why is this guy a rigger, other than the name?

I hate to be a lemming, but seriously. It's Contraption time.

@land_comment: That's it. Just the name. There's no part of the flavor, abilities, or even art that remotely implies anything else rigger-ish about him.

I'm 99% certain that when they were doing the Great Type Update, and some Wizards employee came across this card as part of the process, he realized he had to make this a rigger just to mess with people.

This will be useful when your contraptions die.

Combos with Yawgmoth Demon! :D

@Paolino It doesn't really combo with Yawgmoth Demon. Something that combos with it would give it an artifact to eat every turn. It does go well with Yawgmoth Demon though, if you've already got a bunch of artifacts or something that produces them.

Later it'll be Errata'd to "Whenever a Contraption is put into your graveyard from the battlefield, put a +1/+1 counter on Moriok Rigger."

on a serious note combos with the eggs deck can be a theoretical infinite dude then you just need fling. could be a halfway valid side board win con for the deck to confuse pithing needle targeting of pyrite spellbomb

I love how this would actually work with Contraptions.

Good card, in all seriousness. Obviously pales in comparison to Disciple, but it's Fun in Esper Shenannigans. Hell, You could run it in a Ghave,Guru of Spores EDH with something like mycosynth lattice if you really wanted to play a rigger.

This is great, because you can use your other riggers to assemble contraptions, then sacrifice the contraptions to put +1/+1 counters on him.
