Chainbreaker at the Helm
Adéwalé, Breaker of Chains fits into blue black decks that want tutors and recursion tethered to aggression. When Adéwalé enters the battlefield you dig six cards deep, pull an Assassin Pirate or Vehicle, and refuel your hand while putting noise back on the bottom of your library. That reveal effect is precise card advantage; it thins for specific threats and sets up Vehicle or creature synergy without tax on your other plays.
The second ability turns your Vehicles into trading partners with the graveyard. Every time a Vehicle you control deals combat damage to a player you get a chance to loop Adéwalé from graveyard to hand. Use him as a one card tutor and a recurring piece to keep pressure or assemble combo pieces. Practical, efficient, and suited to decks that orbit artifacts and evasive attackers. Add him to a midrange or tempo shell to stabilize your late game and keep your best plays within reach.
