Creature — Human Artificer
Fear (This creature can't be blocked except by artifact creatures and/or black creatures.)
Each artifact creature card in your graveyard has encore. Its encore cost is equal to its mana cost. (Exile it and pay its mana cost: For each opponent, create a token copy that attacks that opponent this turn if able. They gain haste. Sacrifice them at the beginning of the next end step. Activate only as a sorcery.)

If one of the tokens somehow is under another player’s control as the delayed triggered ability resolves, you can’t sacrifice that token. It remains on the battlefield indefinitely, even if you regain control of it later.
wotc14 Oct 2022
If one of the tokens can’t attack for any reason (such as being tapped), then it doesn’t attack. If there’s a cost associated with having it attack, you aren’t forced to pay that cost, so it doesn’t have to attack in that case either.
wotc14 Oct 2022
Each token must attack the appropriate player if able.
wotc14 Oct 2022
Opponents who have left the game aren’t counted when determining how many tokens to create.
wotc14 Oct 2022
The tokens copy only what’s on the original card. Effects that modified that creature when it was previously on the battlefield won’t be copied.
wotc14 Oct 2022
If an effect stops a token from attacking a specific player, that token can attack any player or planeswalker, or not attack at all. If the effect stops the token from attacking a specific player unless a cost is paid, you don’t have to pay that cost unless you want to attack that player.
