Arm-Mounted Anchor (Extended Art) (Commander: The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Near Mint

Anchored Assault

Arm-Mounted Anchor is a compact artifact equipment built for aggressive commanders that want card advantage on contact. The chrome plated anchor on the forearm gives the equipped creature a clear battlefield role by adding two points to both stats while granting menace so attacks force tricky blocks. In a pirate themed deck the draw discard loop converts combat damage into a steady filtering engine that rewards committing to attacks.

In practice this card shines where you can reliably connect with a wide body or evasive attacker. The draw two then discard two effect is most efficient when you can discard a Pirate card to avoid losing tempo. The reduced equip cost scales well late in the game and the extended art shows the anchor integrated into a sleeve which makes it feel like a signature piece for a seafaring captain.
