Character Background
As a mythic Vehicle from Aetherdrift, Salvation Engine reads like a graveyard-tendering dreadnought — its static +2/+2 anthem and attack-triggered reanimation reward an artifact-centered plan. Gameplay-wise it’s a value/midrange engine (and a combo enabler) rather than pure aggro: you stabilize behind a 6/10 hull, pump and crew an army of metal tokens, and recur keystone artifacts when it attacks. The hefty Crew 6 pushes you to include a mix of mid-power artifact creatures or reliable power boosters (anthems, equipments, or endemic +power artifacts) so two bodies can man the bridge, or to pack token generators that can be pumped. Specific synergies: stock the deck with cheap ETB artifact creatures and sacrifice outlets or artifact tutors so you can both populate and populate the graveyard for optimal recursion; Salvation Engine also shines with artifacts that have powerful ETBs or combo pieces you want back on board. Play it to grind value, reanimate wins, and make every small artifact a meaningful threat.
