Pia Nalaar, Chief Mechanic — Aetherdrift Tactician
Pia Nalaar, Chief Mechanic rewards a board built around artifact creatures and energy. She is a compact two four that converts combat damage into {E} and then turns accumulated energy into flying Vehicles. In practice she accelerates artifact aggro and midrange plans; a single successful strike can fund a Nalaar Aetherjet at your end step and the crew two clause keeps the tokens relevant to both equipment and vehicle decks.
The card works well as a commander or a high impact companion in four colorless friendly shells. Use evasive attackers to reliably gain energy and plan your end step payments to create Vehicles sized to close the game. Pia Nalaar, Chief Mechanic feels like a toolkit piece from the Aetherdrift, offering repeatable value while remaining straightforward to pilot.
