Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer

The green half of an artifact-attrition engine that turns your own board falling apart into a growth clock. The 1/1 body is the tell: this commander wants the Golem token it makes on entry, and then it wants artifacts to die, because every artifact hitting a graveyard from the battlefield feeds a counter to both the legend and every Golem under its control. The design inverts the usual anxiety about losing artifacts into a resource loop, and it rewards the exact things aristocrats decks already do: sacrifice fodder, Treasure and Clue tokens spent for value, artifacts chumping and dying in combat. A dedicated sacrifice outlet plus a stream of disposable artifacts makes the counters snowball fast, and each new Golem you produce arrives ready to be pumped by the next death trigger. Partner is what gives the engine its reach, since green alone supplies the tokens and the payoff but leaves the sacrifice-outlet and artifact-generation slots to a second commander in a color better equipped to feed the machine. Left to its own devices it is a slow grinder; wired into an artifact-death shell it converts a losing board state into board presence, which is a rarer thing for green to do than the color usually gets credit for.
