Bottle Gnomes Artifact Card in Magic the Gathering

Hi, I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village, and today we'll be discussing artifacts from Magic: the Gathering. And now I'm going to talk about Bottle Gnomes. Bottle Gnomes are one of the best blocking artifact creatures that you will ever find. They are gnomes, and they are Uncommon in the basic set. They have always been in the basic set. They are currently from Tenth Edition, and Uncommon. They cost you three colorless mana to put into play, and they're 1/3 blockers. Once again, any creature that has more defense than it does offense is meant to be a blocker. Also, in addition to being a pretty big blocker for the mana cost, there is also an ability on this card in which you sacrifice bottle gnomes and you gain 3 life, so this means that during the combat phase or combat step, when you assign blocking, you can sacrifice the bottle gnomes, and they will give you three life, and the attacking creature will swing and miss at the bottle gnomes, because the bottle gnomes are no longer in play. So, this is what they call a "double move," and you get a bonus of three life.
