Contraptions aren't put into your main deck. They go into a separate deck called the Contraption deck.
wotc19 Jan 2018
In Constructed formats, a Contraption deck must have at least fifteen different Contraption cards and no more than one of each.
wotc19 Jan 2018
Contraptions are artifacts. Anything that interacts with artifacts will interact with Contraptions.
wotc19 Jan 2018
In silver-bordered games using Contraptions, you have three sprockets, illustrated on the back of Contraption cards. At the start of the game, put a CRANK! counter on sprocket 3.
wotc19 Jan 2018
While Contraptions you control are on the battlefield, the Contraption deck is not, even if you are using it to signify the three sprockets.
wotc19 Jan 2018
If you or a permanent you control are instructed to assemble a Contraption, reveal the top card of your Contraption deck. Put it onto the battlefield on one of the three sprockets.
