Pyreswipe Hawk
Creature — Elemental Bird
Whenever this creature attacks, it gets +X/+0 until end of turn, where X is the greatest mana value among artifacts you control.
Whenever you expend 6, gain control of up to one target artifact for as long as you control this creature. (You expend 6 as you spend your sixth total mana to cast spells during a turn.)

If Pyreswipe Hawk leaves the battlefield before its last ability resolves, control of the target artifact won't change at all.

The value of X is calculated only once, as Pyreswipe Hawk's third ability resolves.

If the cost to cast a spell is increased, decreased, or changed because of additional or alternative costs, expend counts only the mana you actually spent.

Abilities that trigger whenever you "expend N" only trigger when you reach that specific amount of mana spent on casting spells that turn. This can only happen once per turn. For example, if you've spent three mana on spells so far this turn and you control a permanent with an ability that triggers "whenever you expend 4," that ability will trigger the next time you spend at least one mana to cast a spell this turn. It won't trigger again if you spend another four mana to cast spells later in the turn.
