Windwright Mage

Artifact Creature — Human Wizard

Lifelink (Whenever this creature deals damage, you gain that much life.)

Windwright Mage has flying as long as an artifact card is in your graveyard.

legendofa on Why Does "Phyrexian" Need to …

If I may engage in hypotheticals here, would a new creature type be needed if the Esper culture from Alara started traveling to other planes? Assuming that the replacement of flesh with metal continues in some areas of New Alara, of course. The Esperites share(d) the trait and cultural identity of rejecting their organic bodies due to perceived weakness with the Phyrexians. If a group of Windwright Mages and Etherium Sculptors suddenly showed up on Dominaria, Ixalan, and Kamigawa (picking planes at random here), would they need a new creature type like Alaran or Esperite, or would they continue to be Humans and Vedalkens? Or would they all suddenly be Constructs or something?

Off-topic sidebar: This is part of why I want a Return to Alara set. What does it look like 20, 50, 100 years later?

At what point does bio-augmentation meet the criteria of a new species or creature type, especially if (a) the result can no longer be considered organic at all, and (b) they go to a place where this is unheard of?

So, I'd start by cutting three lands again, adding more ramp sources, and adding card draw.

Card draw options: Mentor of the Meek , Rhystic Study , Book of Rass , Jace Beleren , and Skullclamp are all decent options. Group-hug options that are affordable include Kami of the Crescent Moon , Well of Ideas , and Dictate of Kruphix .

Ramp: Azorius Signet , Orzhov Signet , Dimir Signet , and Sol Ring are a good start. Smothering Tithe is great.

Cards to cut: Era of Innovation , Court Homunculus , Aethersphere Harvester , Esper Stormblade , Porcelain Legionnaire , Windwright Mage , and probably a bunch of other of your low-curve creatures. They just don't do enough to warrant a slot in EDH, really. You'll want to get out as much bang for your buck for each creature you pack into the deck.

You need some kind of focus for this deck, too. What do you want to do? How do you want to win?

Windwright Mage was only printed at common, would Scornful AEther-Lich, Sludge Strider, or Tower Gargoyle be acceptable replacements. Or does your playgroup not care if a commander is common or uncommon?

Windwright Mage deserves a spot on this.

Windwright Mage Stormscape Battlemage Tower Gargoyle are where I would probably start, probably try to reduce your average CMC though that may depend on the speed of your meta.

To save space No Life? Guess I'll take yours. has most of the suggestions I'd give for possible replacements. My own Oloro deck is creatureless Oloro - So I heard you like creatures? and is just there to annoy my playgroup... if you wanted to take that route.

Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas seems like a natural fit. I'm not sure how much I love Windwright Mage, it just comes across as a Wind Drake. I think i'd rather have a Qumulox or Myr Enforcer. Lotus Bloom seems a bit strange here too. If it works for you though, more power to you.

I like the setup here. Feels very "different". Hope it works out well. Brewers are great.
