While Blizzard&#039;s Hearthstone is designed more as a simplified version of Magic: The Gathering, Artifact is intended to appeal more to TCG (Trading Card Game) enthusiasts. No wonder, since designer Richard Garfiel became a legend with the invention of Magic: The Gathering over 25 (1993) years ago.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9320\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9320\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9320\" src=\"https:\/\/spielepost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Artifact-Karte1.jpg\" alt=\"Image of an artifact card\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spielepost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Artifact-Karte1.jpg 900w, https:\/\/spielepost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Artifact-Karte1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/spielepost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Artifact-Karte1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/spielepost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Artifact-Karte1-696x391.jpg 696w, https:\/\/spielepost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Artifact-Karte1-747x420.jpg 747w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9320\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Steam<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Action allowed<\/h3>\n<p>Another big difference will be the ability to buy and sell the cards. Of course, Valve&#039;s Steam Marketplace plays a very important role here, items from other games, e.g. CS: GO, have been traded there for years and the complete infrastructure is already in place.<\/p>\n<p>There will be more than 280 cards when it is released, and Artifact will initially cost $ 20. In this <strong>Starter pack<\/strong> there are 2 pre-made basic decks with 54 cards each, as well as 10 card packs each containing 12 cards.
