Magic: The Gathering - 2 New Cards from Aetherdrift

First up, we have the Cloudspire Coordinator, an uncommon creature card that embodies the essence of the set's red-white color pairing. This card represents the Cloudspire Racing Team from the plane of Kylem, originally introduced in the 2018 set, Battlebond. The Coordinator not only sports a power of 3, making it ideal for crewing vehicles, but also comes with an activated ability to generate Pilot token creatures, enhancing its utility in red-white decks during Aetherdrift drafts.
Next, we unveil the rare enchantment, Count on Luck. Priced at 3 mana with an all-red-pip casting cost, this card offers a straightforward yet powerful effect. At the beginning of each of your turns, you exile the top card of your library and can play it that turn. This "impulse draw" mechanic ensures a continuous flow of additional cards in mono-red decks, provided you can utilize them immediately.
To add to the excitement, we're also showcasing Count on Luck in its extended-art and First-Place Foil versions. While the extended art simply expands beyond the traditional card frame for a more immersive look, the First-Place Foils introduce a dazzling new feature exclusive to Aetherdrift. These golden cards are part of a randomized buy-a-box promo pack included with every Aetherdrift box, and they cover all the rares in the set along with 10 full-art lands.
Mark your calendars: Aetherdrift races onto the scene on February 14, with prereleases starting on February 7. Get ready to explore more about the set's mechanics here.
