Cloudspire Coordinator, an uncommon creature, exemplifies the red-white color pairing in Aetherdrift. Representing the Cloudspire Racing Team from the plane of Kylem (introduced in Battlebond), this card focuses on vehicle piloting. Its 3 power allows it to crew vehicles, while its activated ability generates Pilot tokens for additional crewing.

The rare card, Count on Luck, is a 3-mana enchantment with a straightforward effect. At the start of each of your turns, you exile the top card of your library and may play it that turn. This "impulse draw" mechanic provides consistent card advantage for mono-red decks, demanding immediate play or discard.

PlayFinally, we present Count on Luck in its extended-art and First-Place Foil versions. The extended-art version expands the card art beyond the typical frame, while the First-Place Foil cards, a shiny gold variant, are exclusive to randomized buy-a-box promo packs included with each Aetherdrift box. All rares in the set, along with 10 full-art lands, receive this premium treatment.

Aetherdrift launches on February 14th (physically and digitally), with prereleases starting February 7th. Further details on the set's mechanics are available here.
