About Untethered Express
Untethered Express, Artifact — vehicle, designed by James Ryman first released in May, 2020 in the set Aether Revolt and was printed exactly in 3 different ways.
This card would be beneficial in an aggressive deck that focuses on quickly building up a board presence and attacking frequently. The ability to grow stronger with each attack and the option to crew it easily make it a versatile threat. While there may be better vehicles in terms of power level, Untethered Express could still see play in the right deck due to its efficiency and potential for rapid growth in power.
Rules
09/29/17
For a Vehicle to be able to attack, it must be a creature as the declare attackers step begins, so the latest you can activate its crew ability to attack with it is during the beginning of combat step. For a Vehicle to be able to block, it must be a creature as the declare blockers step begins, so the latest you can activate its crew ability to block with it is during the declare attackers step. In either case, players may take actions after the crew ability resolves but before the Vehicle has been declared as an attacking or blocking creature.
09/29/17
If a permanent becomes a copy of a Vehicle, the copy won’t be a creature, even if the Vehicle it’s copying has become an artifact creature.
09/29/17
If an effect causes a Vehicle to become an artifact creature with a specified power and toughness, that effect overwrites the Vehicle’s printed power and toughness.
09/29/17
Once a player announces that they are activating a crew ability, no player may take other actions until the ability has been paid for. Notably, players can’t try to stop the ability by changing a creature’s power or by removing or tapping a creature.
09/29/17
Once a Vehicle becomes a creature, it behaves exactly like any other artifact creature. It can’t attack unless you’ve controlled it continuously since your turn began, it can block if it’s untapped, it can be tapped to pay a Vehicle’s crew cost, and so on.
09/29/17
You may tap more creatures than necessary to activate a crew ability.

Any +1/+1 counters on Untethered Express remain on it when it stops being a creature.
