Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Astor, Bearer of Blades is a clean value engine for Boros midrange and equipment- or vehicle-focused aggro, turning a modest four-mana 4/4 into both a threat and a tutor-like setup piece. Entering the battlefield and digging seven cards deep for an Equipment or Vehicle means Astor helps smooth draws while ensuring your deck keeps pressure on the board, and his static abilities make your support cards dramatically more efficient: equip {1} lets even clunky weapons become instant upgrades, while crew 1 turns every disposable creature into a pilot. In practice, he shines best in decks built to curve out with cheap creatures, then chain into powerful equipment like Colossus Hammer-style packages or efficient Vehicles that can be activated immediately. Because he rewards redundancy, pack a dense suite of artifacts with useful enter-the-battlefield or combat bonuses, and consider ways to protect Astor so you can keep converting card advantage into tempo.
