Technomage, Rare 16g
Mage. Runic.
Tower: +8
Quarry: +1
Bricks prod x2
Unliving tokens: +96


It's worth noting that, without this card itself possessing the Unliving keyword, my understanding is that this will not trigger the Unliving effect. It will set the counter to whatever value, even if it is greater than 100, and await the play of an Unliving card to take effect. Sadly, as it is, playing this card won't give 8x brick production (4x trigger, 2x card text).

(Mojko, please comment whether this is correct. I seem to remember this coming up with Far sight or some other +tokens effect.)

Of course, this is easily fixed by giving the card the keyword, but then it's easier to summon into your hand in an Unliving deck.

You are correct, keywords will be triggered only if they are present on the played card. It is possible to change this and trigger all keywords that have a full token counter, but I fear that it will make the game less transparent. I was thinking about implementing a game action log where it would be possible to look up all the actions that happened during the game.

Yes, I'm aware of that, and that was intentional. Giving Unliving keyword to this would definitely be over the top.
