Clockwork Tombcat
Walking Sarcophagus from Aetherdrift is a compact, foil near mint staple that rewards timing and pressure. As an Artifact Creature Zombie Cat that enters the battlefield for {2}, it slots cleanly into an aggressive tempo shell or an artifactcentric midrange plan. The card reads Start your engines! followed by a short rules block explaining speed and then Max speed — This creature gets +1/+2 which makes it a token of escalating threat over multiple turns. The foil finish highlights the sculpted sarcophagus head and the ruined aetherway behind it so the card stands out in both play and collection.
In practical terms Walking Sarcophagus is a two power one toughness body that can grow into a meatier attacker once you trigger its engine by causing opponent life loss. It fits into synergy lines that care about artifacts or creature beaters that improve over time. For players who value efficient, repeatable pressure and a bit of flavorful lore about a warrior out of place, this near mint foil is an easy inclusion. Add it to your list and test how its engine tempo changes your turns.
