For a commander focused on artifacts and token synergy, Cayth, Famed Mechanist (foil etched) delivers steady, reliable value in Commander: Modern Horizons 3 decks.
Cayth, Famed Mechanist
Built as a steady engine for a white and blue artifact strategy, Cayth creates reliable value from the start. Fabricate 1 on Cayth gives you options each turn: you can deploy a 1/1 colorless artifact creature token or place a +1/+1 counter on Cayth, scaling with your board state. The static line Other nontoken creatures you control have fabricate 1 further amplifies your board by granting similar token or counter potential to your other creatures, making your whole lineup work in concert.
Its activated ability costs {2}, and tapping Cayth lets you choose one of two solid options: Populate or Proliferate. Populate copies a creature token you control, which plays well with your token production and any token-heavy strategies you run. Proliferate, on the other hand, helps push counters across your team and any planeswalkers or other permanents that rely on counters, accelerating a resilient, incremental board state.
