Magic: The Gathering - 2 New Cards from Aetherdrift

First up, let's take a look at Cloudspire Coordinator. This uncommon creature card is a perfect representation of the red-white color pairing in Aetherdrift. It embodies the spirit of the Cloudspire Racing Team from the plane of Kylem, which was first introduced in Magic's 2018 set, Battlebond. With a power of 3, Cloudspire Coordinator can crew vehicles on its own, and its activated ability allows you to create Pilot token creatures to crew them for you. This card is a fantastic addition to any red-white deck during an Aetherdrift draft.
Next, we have the rare enchantment, Count on Luck. This 3-mana card with an all-red-pip casting cost is as straightforward as it gets. At the start of each of your turns, you exile the top card of your library and can play it during that turn. This "impulse draw" mechanic provides a consistent flow of extra cards for your mono-red deck, as long as you can play them immediately. It's a use-it-or-lose-it strategy that can really shake up your gameplay.
We also have a special treat for you: a look at Count on Luck in its extended-art and First-Place Foil versions. While the extended-art version offers a wider view by removing the card frame on the sides, the First-Place Foils are a brand-new addition to Aetherdrift. These dazzling golden cards are exclusively available in a randomized buy-a-box promo pack that comes with every box of Aetherdrift. All the rares in the set, along with 10 full-art lands, will receive this special treatment.
Mark your calendars! Aetherdrift will hit the streets, both in paper and online, on February 14, with prereleases starting on February 7. To learn more about the set's mechanics, click here. Get ready to race across the multiverse with Aetherdrift!
