{1}, {T}: Draw a card, then discard a card.

Strategy Guides
Artifacts Strategy Guide
Artifact decks are for players who want cheap permanents, mana rocks, and utility pieces to become one connected engine. This strategy wants to build artifact count and mana density, using artifact commanders, cost reducers, Treasure, recursion, and untap effects, to win through construct armies, loops, or artifact payoffs. Unlike Equipment, it cares about every artifact rather than just weapons, and unlike Ramp it turns the mana rocks themselves into the engine instead of only casting bigger spells. The best artifact decks EDH players build reward careful sequencing because each small piece can convert the next piece into more mana or cards.
Tokens Strategy Guide
Token decks are for players who want one card to become many bodies and then decide whether those bodies attack, block, draw cards, or fuel another engine. This strategy wants to flood the battlefield with creatures, using token commanders, repeatable generators, and anthem effects, to win through a go wide attack or by converting the swarm into damage, drain, or mana. Tokens is different from Aristocrats because making bodies comes first, from Counters because it grows wide instead of tall, and from Voltron because it spreads pressure across many creatures. The best token decks EDH players build reward patience against sweepers and careful timing on the finishing turn.
