Scholar of Stars

Creature — Human Artificer

When Scholar of Stars enters the battlefield, if you control an artifact, draw a card.

Hi, cool list! I am putting together a Jalira PDH, so this is a nice inspiration pool. It looks like you haven't updated your list in a while, so just out of my head: Chillbringer (freeze), Dimir Informant (surveil), Sage's Row Savant (scry), Aviation Pioneer (thopter token), Scholar of Stars (card draw).

Here are some easy swaps when you have the chance.

Voidwielder and the other subpar bounce creatures for either AEther Adept or Man-o'-War or Reflector Mage or all three!

Scholar of Stars for Mulldrifter

Fogwalker for Frost Lynx although honestly I'd cut it when I get the chance.

Spell Burst for Forbid but that's pretty expensive, Insidious Will is a lot better or you could go full protection and go for Swan Song or Dispel

Enlightened Ascetic for War Priest of Thune or Leonin Relic-Warder

Fleeting Memories for New Perspectives though again, I'd cut this when I get the chance.

Divine Favor for literally anything else but I'll say Flickering Ward

Meteorite and Manalith for Chromatic Lantern and Coldsteel Heart. I don't think you need a subpar card like Meteorite when you have infinite blinks.

Why Homarid Explorer? Seems like an odd choice. Again, infinite blinks will win with literally anything so why not play card that synergies with your deck more? How about Deadeye Navigator which is a stupid card and a back up brago? Or Venser, Shaper Savant to bounce all the lands.

That's the biggest piece of advice I'd give you. You have a lot fo random mill that doesn't synergies with your commander like Psychic Corrosion. I'd see about removing that.

Finally 33 lands is kinda low. I aim for at least 36, maybe even 38

As nice as some cards are, I would recommend to stick around the 60 card minimum. With each card that you add, it decreases the odds that you'll draw it.

It might be nice to focus on a single win condition that can frequently happen, instead of splitting priorities and being mediocre at multiple objectives.

For personal suggestions, I would take out...

  • Air Elemental: You already have better fliers for one mana more.
  • Aven Wind Mage: There's not enough instants/sorceries to justify running this.
  • One with the Machine: It's not a consistent draw card. Also sorcery speed holds it back a lot compared to cards like Chemister's Insight.
  • Meteor Golem: Super expensive. You probably don't want to rely on it too heavily.
  • Take Vengeance: Adding an extra color complicates its use. You have only Islands so don't try to rely on Manaliths that are less 3% of your deck.
  • Manalith: Speaking of which, you probably don't need this. If you're encountering mana drought, you can add an extra land or two.
  • Field Creeper: You have better cards already.
  • Tolarian Scholar: You have better cards already.
  • Scholar of Stars: Doesn't consistently perform its ability. You would need a lot more artifacts in my opinion.
  • Snapping Drake: Just one of them.
