Riptide Gearhulk — Push the Tide
Riptide Gearhulk slots into control and tempo shells without fuss. Riptide Gearhulk is an Artifact Creature Construct that arrives with double strike and prowess, so it pressures life totals and grows with your instant and sorcery interaction. The borderless Aetherdrift art shows a crystalline automaton riding a current of aether, which fits the card's role as a proactive lock piece that also scales with spellcasting.
When Riptide Gearhulk enters the battlefield it mills opponents of key nonland permanents by shunting them third from the top of their libraries, which creates long term disruption while leaving room for targeted answers. Use it as a finisher after clearing the board or as a tempo play to convert a counterspell or removal into a recurring advantage. Add this Near Mint borderless copy to a blue white artifacts list to tighten game plans and increase consistency. Pick it up now to refine your deck and close games more reliably.
