Clown is a creature class introduced for Unfinity.[2] While largely largely acorn-stamped, the type has appeared on eternal legal cards as well.

Description

Clowns are comic entertainers who wear traditional comical costumes and exaggerated make-up, especially in a circus. In Unfinity all but one of the Clowns are Robots, but not all the Robots are Clowns. This helped to avoid the creepy clown trope.[2]

Technical clowns have been portrayed in black-bordered Magic in factions like the Cult of Rakdos, which are entertainers visually modeled after harlequins. However, they are not typed as clowns.
