Artifact and Blasphemy

[Goldilox]

I've just noticed that having artifact also negated negative status effects you inflict on yourself
Does that mean that it is possible to play Blasphemy without dying next turn?
Should be tested

[DJDiceZ]

Artifact negates effects that are tagged as debuffs in the game.

Blasphemy's "Die" effect is tagged as a buff. See where this is going?

Unfortunately no, you can't artifact Blasphemy.

I mean
Dying is pretty fun

You can use Blasphemy without dying if you are intangible. I don't get why it doesn't work with artifact, I don't think it would be OP.

Because they really didn't want Blasphemy to be survivable, period. They temporarily nerfed Intangible when they introduced this card (making it only apply to enemy attacks and nothing else), but reverted that because it was terrible to rebalance the effect based on one card. But as to it not being that powerful:
Artifact comes from two cards (one uncommon colorless, one rare Defect), potions, and a beginning of battle relic.
Intangible comes from two cards (one event colorless, one rare Silent), potions, and a once per X turns relic.

The latter is at least a little rarer, and generally more powerful.
