# Cryptoplasm Cryptoplasm represents a unique design space in Magic's clone effects. Rather than creating a one-time copy, this creature generates ongoing duplication of target artifacts, making it a flexible utility piece that rewards creative deckbuilding. Collectors appreciate it for its mechanical novelty and the artifact-heavy environment of Mirrodin Besieged, where it had genuine applications. The card exists in standard nonfoil and foil versions, with foil copies commanding modest premiums among players seeking complete sets. While not a chase card, Cryptoplasm appeals to those building artifact-focused decks and collectors interested in clone mechanics across Magic's history. Its rarity status keeps it accessible without being common.
