Description
Prospector's Edge
Diamond Pick-Axe from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan is the kind of utility artifact you bring when the plan is to pressure life total and fund your next big play. The card gives the equipped creature a steady one point boost to both power and toughness and turns each attack into incremental value by creating a Treasure token. In practical terms this means each successful swing both threatens damage and refuels your mana options, which fits naturally into aggressive midrange or rakish equipment decks.
Printed with Indestructible, Diamond Pick-Axe survives most single target removal that would otherwise send equipment back to the bin. The equip cost is modest so you can move it between attackers when the board shifts. Lore wise the gem tipped head hints at Ixalan's buried riches, a tool forged to pry open cavern locks and fund the next expedition. For players who prize tempo and resource generation Diamond Pick-Axe earns its slot in the 75.
