Engineered Discovery with Tetzin
Tetzin, Gnome Champion offers a compact toolkit for artifact-driven decks. The card rewards building around double-faced artifacts by milling three cards whenever Tetzin or another qualifying artifact arrives. That mill is not just card disadvantage. It is a deliberate draw engine that digs for artifacts you can reclaim to your hand and convert into board presence.
In practice Tetzin scales into late game strategies that value recursion and assembly. The Craft mechanic sets a clear threshold and gives you a plan: assemble six artifacts and the payoff improves. As lore, Tetzin reads like a workshop foreman of Ixalan caverns who treats each new contraption as a recruit. Play it in decks that can reliably produce artifacts and use the milling as selective tutoring for what matters.
