Riveteers Requisitioner
Blitz was built for creatures exactly like this one: a body whose value lives in its death rather than its board presence. Cast it for full price and you get a fragile 3/1 beater that leaves a Treasure behind when it dies. Cast it for blitz and the calculus flips: haste turns those three power into immediate damage, the mandatory end-step sacrifice becomes a payout rather than a tax, and you convert the creature into both a Treasure and a fresh card the same turn it swings. The trick is that the printed death trigger and the blitz death clause both fire, so a blitzed copy that connects and dies replaces itself twice over: ramp from the Treasure, gas from the card draw, all paid for by a body that was never meant to stick around. That is the mechanic's whole thesis in a single attack. The friction is deliberate: the card wants to die, so it asks you to weigh whether you'd rather keep a persistent (if flimsy) two-mana threat on the ramp plan, or pay the blitz cost and cash it in now for tempo and gas. Neither line is wrong, and the mode you pick tends to reveal what the deck actually needs turn to turn. It is a small, honest engine, the kind of aggressive value creature that treats disposability as an upside rather than a liability.
