Confiscation Coup from Commander Aetherdrift gives a pragmatic route to steal a late game threat. Castable for {3}{U}{U}, it hands you four energy and then offers a clean exchange: pay energy equal to the target permanent's mana value and gain control of it. The card reads plainly and resolves predictably, which is what experienced pilots want when the board needs a single decisive interaction.
In play the Coup functions as both economy and removal in one spell. You can trigger the energy gain to fuel other synergies or immediately spend that energy to claim a key artifact or creature, turning an opponent advantage into your own. The flavor sits neatly in Aetherdrift lore with a regulated confiscation carried out under a technocratic mandate. Condition is Near Mint and the card is printed in English, suitable for competitive Commander lists or collectors who track set and rarity.
