Guidelight Core
Mendicant Core, Guidelight arrives as a compact engine for artifact decks and a useful lore piece from Aetherdrift. The card rewards board development since Mendicant Core's power is equal to the number of artifacts you control and it carries a steady three toughness. Its secondary ability gives an efficient route to copying artifact spells when you are willing to invest one mana, which can turn a single servo into a game swinging sequence.
From a play perspective Mendicant Core, Guidelight fits into artifact synergies and token builds. It scales with your board and presses advantage without demanding complex sequencing. Include it when you want a flexible legendary artifact creature that can both beef up with a cluster of artifacts and accelerate your midgame with repeatable copies. Add one to your list and see how it changes the calculus of casting your high value artifacts.
