Mirrodin common. During Mirrodin design the Myr were actually gnomes. Gnomes were introduced to Magic during Legends with Quarum Trench Gnomes. But, starting with Clockwork Gnomes in Homelands, the gnome creature type became associated with artifact creatures. Since then, seven artifact gnomes have been printed, to just the one non-artifact gnome. Since gnomes-only-as-artifacts doesn’t actually make much sense, the Myr were created instead so that gnomes didn’t always have to continue being artifacts.
