Harried Dronesmith: Thopter on Demand
Harried Dronesmith is a compact red toolbox creature you slot into aggressive or artifact-support builds. For {3}{R} you get a 2/3 Human Artificer that converts each combat into tempo. At the beginning of your combat on your turn she assembles a 1/1 colorless Thopter artifact creature token with flying. That token gains haste so it can pressure blockers or close out life totals immediately and then is sacrificed at the beginning of your next end step. The cadence of token generation fits well in decks that want repeated evasive attackers or sacrifice fodder for value engines.
Read through the card as a player. Harried Dronesmith rewards precise timing and board planning. Use the Thopter for early damage, to trigger anthem effects, to chump the opponent in a pinch, or to feed an artifact outlet. Lorewise she embodies the Karlov Manor spirit of clever tinkering under pressure which makes her a steady, predictable contributor across casual, commander and limited play.
