Steamcore Scholar: A Curious Witness
The Steamcore Scholar arrives as a compact airframe of arcane machinery and keen observation. Steamcore Scholar is a {2}{U} creature with flying and vigilance that slots into control and tempo decks that value card flow and evasive pressure. When Steamcore Scholar enters the battlefield you draw two cards then face a choice that rewards forward planning; its enter effect refines your hand while offering a chance to sculpt graveyard targets or refill with cheap instants and sorceries.
Use Steamcore Scholar to refill and filter through turns where card selection matters. The creature’s 2/2 body buys time in the air while vigilance keeps it ready to block without tapping. In lore terms the Scholar threads evidence across the Karlov estate, trading memories for actionable leads. For players who value predictable card advantage and incremental advantage in the skies, this card is a practical tool in both constructed and limited play.
