Captain Storm Leads the Raid
Captain Storm, Cosmium Raider rewards an artifact heavy approach with steady incremental growth. The card name is a clear signal for Pirate tribal and artifact synergies. With a casting cost of {U}{R} and a 2/2 body, Captain Storm, Cosmium Raider turns each engineered tool you play into a permanent boost by placing a +1/+1 counter on a Pirate you control whenever an artifact enters the battlefield under your control.
In practice this Legendary Creature fits into midrange Pirate lists or artifact centric decks that want a reliable counter engine. Play small artifacts to build a board of larger attackers or pair Captain Storm, Cosmium Raider with sacrifice outlets and crew effects to amplify value. The flavor matches Lost Caverns of Ixalan by tying treasure hunting and salvage to incremental power growth and board presence.
