Leonardo in the Workshop
Leonardo da Vinci brings calculated utility to blue artifact decks. This mythic Legendary Creature sits at {2}{U} and reads like a toolbox for any Thopter or artifact shell. The first ability scales your board to your hand size so you choose when to press an advantage. The second ability grants card selection and a repeatable method to turn discarded artifacts into flying blockers or additional threats.
The design rewards careful sequencing and hand management. Play Leonardo when you can leverage a full grip or when you need to convert dead artifacts into bodies that also serve as copies of key pieces. Practical, not flashy, this card fits into control and combo lists that value redundancy and incremental card advantage. Add it to your deck to smooth draws and to give artifact strategies a reliable engine.

If the discarded card was an artifact card, exile it from your graveyard. If you do, create a token that's a copy of it, except it's a 0/2 Thopter artifact creature with flying in addition to its other types.
