Oracle Text
{6}, {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Destroy target nonland permanent. This ability costs {3} less to activate if you attacked with a Spacecraft this turn.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Thaumaton Torpedo is a deceptively efficient common for decks that want to stay flexible and answer almost anything, making it strongest in control or midrange shells that can also pressure the board with Spacecraft. On the surface, paying six mana, tapping, and sacrificing an artifact to destroy any nonland permanent is a heavy ask, but the Spacecraft discount turns it into a much faster tempo swing after an attack, dropping the activation to a manageable three mana. That means the ideal plan is to attack first, force awkward blocks or shield your best threat, then convert the Torpedo into a clean removal spell that can hit creatures, planeswalkers, or problem artifacts and enchantments. Deckbuilding-wise, pair it with cheap artifact makers and any cards that reward sacrificing artifacts, so it is never dead in hand and can double as fodder if you draw multiple copies. The name and effect fit a sci-fi ordnance theme: a precision blast held in reserve until the right tactical opening appears.
