Gameplay notes
The adventure half finds whichever legend your board needs. As a legendary artifact, the Arkenstone itself is two Storied counts in one permanent.
Key synergies
The Arkenstone's recurring end-step draw is normally your second card each turn, repeatedly triggering the Councillors' mill without requiring further mana.
Both Seek the Heart and The Arkenstone are noncreature spells, so Uncover can turn the two halves into separate large draw triggers; casting the five-mana artifact draws five cards before discarding two, followed by the Arkenstone's recurring end-step draw.
Seek the Heart can tutor Dáin, and The Arkenstone supplies a legendary artifact toward enabling his Storied attack tax while providing cards and an anthem that help establish the defensive board the tax rewards.
The Arkenstone's end-step card is normally the second card drawn after the turn's draw-step card, putting a +1/+1 counter on Lakeshore Apothecary every turn.
Seek the Heart can tutor Bifur directly, while casting The Arkenstone afterward adds a legendary artifact toward Storied and supplies an anthem and recurring cards for Bifur's late-game Dwarf board.
Seek the Heart tutors Fíli, while The Arkenstone contributes a legendary artifact toward Storied and strengthens the wide Dwarf board Fíli creates; once Storied is active, their two global +1/+1 effects stack.
Seek the Heart can tutor The Chief Warg because it is legendary, and the Arkenstone's anthem then raises the Warg to 4/4 so it enables its own Ferocious attacks.
The Arkenstone draws an additional card at every end step, steadily adding counters to Ravenhill Flock, while its global +1/+1 bonus makes the growing flier even more threatening.
Bard replaces the Arkenstone's end-step draw with two cards every turn, creating a powerful recurring card-advantage engine alongside its anthem.
Seek the Heart can tutor Kíli, and casting The Arkenstone adds a legendary artifact toward Storied, helping unlock Kíli's free equip ability while its anthem and recurring draw support the resulting Equipment-heavy creature deck.
Seek the Heart puts the set's best legendary creature directly into your hand — a tutor for your bomb.
The Arkenstone's recurring end-step draw is normally the second card drawn after the draw-step card, triggering Bard every turn without requiring another draw engine.
Seek the Heart tutors Gandalf, and both casting Seek the Heart and later casting The Arkenstone count as noncreature spells, giving Gandalf separate pump-and-damage triggers from the same card.
Seek the Heart can tutor Bofur, while Concerted Care can protect The Arkenstone itself with hexproof and indestructible, preserving its recurring card-draw engine and anthem from artifact removal.
Casting The Arkenstone causes an artifact to enter and immediately draws a card from Fateful Discovery, adding another card to the artifact's ongoing end-step draw engine.
