Goblin Tinkerer of the Skyways
Draconautics Engineer marries tempo and token generation in a compact red body. This 2/2 Goblin Artificer for {1}{R} trades early damage for repeatable burst plays. Its first Exhaust ability gives your board haste and a +1/+1 counter on the Engineer so it scales as you push through attackers. The second Exhaust ability pays a larger cost to produce a 4/4 red Dinosaur Dragon with flying, which turns a single activation into a meaningful midrange threat.
In Aetherdrift games this card reads as both an engine piece and a finisher. The interactions are straightforward: choose when to trigger Exhaust to keep pressure or to replenish air power. It sits well in aggressive artifact or goblin shells and gives mono red and Naya decks a reliable airborne answer without sacrificing early board presence. Add it to decks that want repeatable haste and modular threat creation.
