Sky Sovereign
Hellkite Tyrant is a straightforward threat with a game ending clause that changes how you approach artifact decks. The card text is simple to read and the effect is clear. With flying and trample plus a 6 5 body for {4}{R}{R}, the creature pressures life totals and forces blocks. When Hellkite Tyrant deals combat damage to a player you take control of every artifact they control which rewards aggressive attack steps and careful timing against artifact heavy opponents.
In practical play Hellkite Tyrant shifts the board in one swing and creates a long term win condition. The upkeep trigger that wins you the game if you control twenty or more artifacts gives you a plan to assemble value when you pair the card with token generators and recurring artifact loops. The retro frame foil print from Ravnica Remastered is a piece that performs on the table and reads clearly for opponents and judges alike.
