Character Background

Slag Strider feels like a furnace-born enforcer, an Elemental that turns spare metal into steady pressure. In Modern Horizons 2, it best supports a grindy value or artifact-aggro plan, where its affinity for artifacts can dramatically reduce the seven-mana cost and let it hit the table far earlier than expected. Once it’s out, every extra bauble, treasure, or token becomes a point of reach: for just {1} and a sacrifice, it picks off creatures, planeswalkers, or the last points of life, making stalled boards very uncomfortable for the opponent. It shines especially in decks that naturally flood artifacts, such as sacrifice shells, artifact token builds, or strategies using inexpensive permanents that can be cashed in for damage. Pair it with treasures, thopters, or recursive artifacts so its activated ability stays live without costing real resources. As a 3/3, it also provides a respectable body once the battlefield is softened up.
