Construct is a catch-all artifact creature type used for artificial life-forms powered by mechanical means. Constructs are different from golems, which are created through magic, but there is some degree of ambiguity between these types in the game. They can be thought of as robots or automatons and come in a wide variety of forms, often imitating organic life.
The first creature to bear the construct type was Bronze Bombshell in Dissension, though many cards from Antiquities were later issued errata in the Grand Creature Type Update to become constructs as well.
Notable Constructs
- Brass Men
- Voltaic Construct
- Memnites, miniature versions of Memnarch
- Phyrexian Devourer
- Slag Fiend, a red Construct
- Stuffy Doll, famous from several early artworks
Construct tokens
Construct tokens are produced by:
- Gemini Engine (in the Grand Creature Type Update the subtype Twin for a token created by this card was changed into a 3/4 colorless Construct artifact creature "named Twin")
- Stone Idol Trap (6/12 colorless Construct artifact creature token with trample)
