Scarab Architect
Hashaton, Scarab's Fist arrives as a borderless mythic that reads like a blueprint for discard synergy in Commander. The card art shows a stately scarab-masked construct clutching a gilded staff while cold architecture frames the scene, underscoring the card's mix of ritual and precision. As a Legendary Creature — Zombie Wizard with a compact 1/3 body and a white and black casting cost, Hashaton is built to sit at the head of token engines and reward disciplined hand management.
The printed ability is straightforward and serviceable for multiple archetypes. Whenever you discard a creature card, you may pay {2}{U}. If you do, create a tapped token that is a copy of that card except it is a 4/4 black Zombie. That effect turns discard into irreversible board presence and converts graveyard fodder into resilient blockers or attackers. Use Hashaton to convert sacrificial plays into repeatable value, support graveyard recursion lines, and anchor a Commander deck that blends disruption with token resilience. Consider pairing it with efficient discard outlets and protection for your commander to maximize repeated triggers.
