Spire of Industry (1/16)

 

If you have an artifact, this is a better Mana Confluence. Good thing we're in an artifact block, right?

 

There’s not a ton to say about this card: it’s better than Mana Confluence if you regularly have the “turn on" condition met, since it can get you colorless mana without any cost, but decks without artifacts may give it a wide berth. This may be a card that slots into Affinity’s gameplan in more inclusive formats, though time will tell for that.

Everybody likes nonbasic lands, and another five-color land is certainly going to draw attention. The additional condition compared to something like Mana Confluence is not entirely insignificant, but there are few decks in EDH that have no mana artifacts or equipment or the like and thus will be completely unable to take advantage. Even in Standard, where players are often less willing to meet specific conditions for cards, there's no shortage of artifacts you might want to play.
