Voyager Glidecar
The cheapest possible entry into a mech deck, and one whose three abilities offer very different rates. Crew 1 asks for almost nothing to get it swinging, so it can attack the turn after it lands with barely any support; this is a Vehicle you can crew with a single body. The activated ability raises the stakes. By tapping three untapped creatures (not paying mana, not sacrificing anything, just spending their attack step), you turn it into a flying artifact creature that grows a +1/+1 counter every time you do it. That is the mode where the card cashes creatures out: it converts a stalled wide board into evasive, counter-boosted damage without an anthem or an alpha strike, a go-wide payoff wearing a one-drop's clothes. The scry on entry is the refund that keeps it honest in the games where you never assemble three spare bodies: you still spent your white mana on a 2/3 that can crew or block with a single creature tapped and smooths a draw. The design lives in the choice between those two modes, and it resolves by refusing to force one. Crew it cheap and swing early, or bank it as a board sink that turns ground presence into air. It rewards the deck that floods the battlefield and then finds itself with no way to punch through a clogged stalemate: three untapped attackers become one that flies over the top.
