Karn, Reflective Silver is a colorless golem Planeswalker, introduced in May 2022. Karn Reflective is the final Planeswalker release accompanying the Puzzle Masters card set.

Being colorless, Karn can generally include cards of any color in his decks, as long as they share a color with the event node on which he plays.

He has high health, average creature limit, high support limit, and low spell limit. His mana bonus total is the highest in the game, and evenly balanced across all five colors. As usual with mana bonuses, being good at everything means not being particularly good at anything; even the Origins Planeswalkers' bonuses are higher on their own color. Despite the bonuses being twice those of his predecessor, they represent potential difficulty because they can not be raised permanently without outside aid, as Karn, Scion of Urza's can.

Karn 2's abilities are all either temporary or conditional; the latter dependent on significant or stifling achievements.

He has the ability to gain mana on artifact cards in hand. He can temporarily buff his artifact creatures and mana bonuses. He can exile all of the token supports on the board, and take control of them, if he has 20 artifacts on the board.

Ironically, Karn 2 is not an irrational choice to go up against Karn 1, since 2 can Shatterstorm the supports that Karn Scion runs to fulfill the conditions of his ultimate ability, and then bring them back to use against their former owner.

Planeswalkers with problematic mana will always lose that handicap in the Colors of Magic event, but Karn 2 additionally is powerful against flurries of the Paladin Class card that has become popular in top tiers of that event.

Karn, Reflective Silver is the second of two playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Karn at different points in his life.

Silver Reflection

Colorless Support Card, 2 Shields, Token, Can’t Be Reinforced "When you match this support's gem: CrystalizeCrystalize target support."

This ability is strong, if conditional removal, but it should not be counted on for mana. Like all Mana FieldMana Field abilities that affect gems (or any other gem-affecting abilities that are activated during the Gem Matching step), the Silver Reflection Token's Crystalized gems are more likely to make matches possible for the opponent.

Story

There used to be a plane of mathematical perfection built over the silver that reflected the light of four suns. Karn, its creator, used to admire the artifacts beneath the multiple sun sky, manipulating the flow of mana with his silver mechanical arms.
