Spark of Aethercraft
The Aetherspark arrives as a compact engine for artifact and equipment decks. The Aetherspark gives you a planeswalker body inside an equipment frame so you can move loyalty where it matters most. The permanent reads cleanly in play: attach it to a creature to protect the card from being attacked while turning combat damage into loyalty growth. The Light Play Foil shows off the sigil and filigree without obscuring the rules text so you know exactly what you are adding to your list.
Use the plus ability to leap Aetherspark between threats and seed +1 plus +1 counters on creatures you intend to pressure with. The minus five ability provides card selection and the minus ten ability converts accumulated loyalty into a large mana payout. The card reads well in midrange and combo shells that can keep a protected equipped creature on board and capitalize on steady loyalty gain. Add one to a sideboard plan or build a deck around recurring attachments to make the most of its synergies.
