Voltstrider on the Case
Kylox's Voltstrider is a compact artifact Vehicle that brings tempo and toolbox utility to spellslinger builds. For {1}{U}{R} you get a 4/4 when crewed and a Collect evidence 6 ability that turns the vehicle into an artifact creature for the turn. Its attack trigger actually retrieves spells exiled with it allowing you to cast those instants or sorceries while avoiding the usual discard. The card rewards careful sequencing and a plan to accumulate cards under the Vehicle through evidence generation.
In play the Voltstrider supports a metagame of surprise interaction. It pairs well with mass exile or self-mill effects that feed its exiled pool and with cards that protect attackers. The flavor fits Murders at Karlov Manor because this machine unearths and replays clues as evidence. Practical and efficient, Kylox's Voltstrider is an option when you want a persistent threat that also extends your spell economy.
