There are a lot of artifacts in the Magic: The Gathering. Slovakia has artifacts of his own - a whole party, the HZDS for instance, with glorious past, but no future. There are also other politicians, personalities or institutions never really belong to any party, in specific cases they belong simultaneously to many sides. These are all considered as artifacts.

Basic pack - Black
Black is the color of corruption and evil in the card game. The SNS are not obviously evil but due to numerous scandals they can be seen as corrupted a lot. The party's agenda is focusing on the Hungarian minority. The emblematic leader of the SNS, Jan Slota is known for his Hungarophobia, heavy drinking and politically incorrect statements.

Basic pack - Red
Red is the most agressive color in Magic: The Gathering - a perfect fit for the Smer. Red will symbolize the biggest Slovak party and the leftist ideologies. Robert Fico, the head of party (and Prime Minister of the Slovak Republic) is famous from his aggressive attacks on the media, politicians... well, basically everyone crossing his way.

White is the color of healing, purity, consistency and traditional values. Let's say they will be the hardliner conservatives. They are so dedicated to Christian values such as love and patience, that they managed to fall out with each other and divide their party. Just as in Magic: The Gathering the members of the opposing faction are called 'rebels'.
