Absolutely! In Magic The Gathering, poison counters deal damage just as effectively to artifact creatures as they do to any other type of creature. So, if your formidable artifact creature gets hit by a poison counter, it's just as vulnerable as any flesh-and-blood creature out there. Watch out for those sneaky infect decks!

Nope, artifact creatures don't get a pass here. Poison hits them just as hard. Time to rethink that all-artifact deck strategy if you're up against a poison-heavy opponent.

From personal experience, yes, poison counters do affect artifact creatures. Had my prized Darksteel Colossus taken down by a mere Virulent Sliver once. Still hurts.
