Magic: The Gathering - Aetherdrift: Two New Cards Revealed

Cloudspire Coordinator, an uncommon creature, showcases the red-white archetype. Representing the Cloudspire Racing Team from the plane of Kylem (introduced in Battlebond), this card focuses on vehicle piloting. Its 3 power allows it to crew vehicles, and its activated ability generates Pilot tokens for additional crewing.

The rare card, Count on Luck, is a 3-mana enchantment with a straightforward effect. At the start of each of your turns, you exile the top card of your library and may play it that turn. This "impulse draw" mechanic provides consistent card advantage for mono-red decks, demanding immediate use.

PlayFinally, we present Count on Luck in its extended-art and First-Place Foil versions. While extended-art simply expands the artwork, First-Place Foils are a new addition to Aetherdrift. These golden cards are exclusive to randomized buy-a-box promo packs included with each Aetherdrift box, encompassing all set rares and 10 full-art lands.

Aetherdrift launches physically and digitally on February 14th, with prereleases starting February 7th. Further details on set mechanics are available here.
