Skyward Saboteur
Diversion Unit is a compact Aetherdrift artifact creature built for tactical tempo. It presents as a two drop that trades body presence for immediate interaction. With Flying and a cheap blue activation that requires sacrificing the Unit, it turns a single airborne blocker into a surprise counterspell tax that pressures opponents to choose between paying extra or losing their instant or sorcery.
This Diversion Unit fits naturally into control shells and tempo blue decks where each interaction must justify a resource. Use it to buy turns, protect a key play, or convert an attack step into a permission window. The card reads cleanly and its printed economy makes sequencing important. Add it when you need flexible disruption that doubles as an evasive creature on the battlefield.
