With reference to Mantis Engine and Magus of the Candelabra, I kinda hope the Tawnos gets a card in the main set, but I doubt it.

Kinda wish Ashnod's commander deck card was more universal, e.g. "Whenever you sacrifice one or more permanents to cast a spell or activate an ability..." Dunno if that would have led to an easy infinitive combo. (Also, in a Breya deck or something, she has cute synergy with BRO!Tawnos.)

drago2412 What kind of criticism is that? That in no way helps anything or anyone. You're just being a dick for no reason. If you think the deck is bad, offer something you think could make it better, even if it's a complete overhaul from the current state.

In regards to your deck keezer5, I think going with a Modular theme would make this deck a lot better in general. Remove all the Clockwork stuff, those cards are just plain bad. I'll assume, for now, that this deck is casual and budget. Upping good, cheap cards to 4-ofs such as Arcbound Worker and Steel Overseer would make this deck better and much more consistent. I would remove some of your high-costed cards, such as Pentavus and Mantis Engine. The rest can serve as finishers, but I would strongly consider cutting them as well. Affinity is also a strong keyword, and I would suggest you research some lists around the site with the tag "Affinity" or "Artifacts", under the "Casual" format. Finally, removing blue entirely from this deck and changing it to colorless makes the mana much easier and the deck more consistent.
