Azariah747 thanks! This is gonna be getting some serious testing in the coming weekend. Been testing against existing mono red build my friend runs and my existing treasure control deck and it holds up pretty well winning 75% of the time against either so far. I'm just interested to test against the new red and white cards.

can you vicious offering the etrata after damage?

With the shuffle trigger on the stack yes. You can also bounce him back to hand

I really like this, this will be my first entrance into standard from EDH. I've put together what I could in MTG Arena and It's going well. Was originally looking for an Etrata deck, but I've found she works best on her own with 4 copies. Really nice 4 mana 3/5, unblock-able and removal in one package. Thanks for this!

EkkoGekko Thanks! I'm a little under the weather this week so live testing will have to hold off till next week but I cant wait to run new version at my LGS.

Why do you not play Karn in this deck may I ask? He would seem like a great fit for the deck.

Cause he would blow the budget..... Massively. Originally this was a sub $100 deck now its sub 200 and with karn would make it sub 3 or over 3

What would you change if budget was no issue?

burianu 2 Karns, no traxos, 3rd doom whisperer.

Lol... /sees big all-caps warning/

This deck isn't an artifact deck, it doesn't even have AfFiNiTy and Black Lotus fooooool! Midrange? Barely, it doesn't even rUn FoUr GoYfIbOIs lOoOoL!

Jk, no ban pls. Love the list, do you think any Tezzeret, Artifice Masters could find a spot here? I really think they synergize well in the artifact list, and even though you just sort of have artifacts, and aren't based around them, the Tezz's really grind out games all on their own.

SynergyBuild This deck used to be way more artifact base. 2 Traxos, 3 voltaic servants, some antiquities wars, and that version is still viable but I like this now.

Tezz was in here and the original build (only because I own one) and is normally The Immortal Sun spot in the deck. I ended up going with the sun now because A) shuts down golgari vraska as well as just planeswalkers in general including tezz. B) still get that sweet card advantage. C) get that sweet board pump. D) get that sweet cost reduction on an already cost effective deck.

In the end it just kinda made more sense where tezz usually just ends up being my draw ramp. Plus with less artifacts in here yes he still works but not quite as obviously and consistently. Maybe in a version of this with Karn he would stay.

Cool, still feel the walkers over the sun! How has this version performed over the previous one?

SynergyBuild Haven't had the time to get any testing in at my LGS. Still need to get 2 doom whisperers but other than that so far its been interesting. Holds up against my friends mono red goblins really well. Still looking to get some live testing in against golgari , R/W Angels and Grixis Control.

Do you play arena? Those decks are everywhere!

SynergyBuild I do not. Was in alpha and betas but just dont have the time to dedicate

Aww... It'd give you the ability to test this deck more though, so I'd suggest it heavily when you get the time.

Nice deck but man chill out a lil, my ears started hurting just reading that description.

Senthes try getting 40 comments a day of dumb shit and people just trolling

Cool! I really like the build and the fact that you can play standard without having to sacrifice a bank account you control!!!! U/B is got me by the heart strings, but I don’t have the cards for it, ????, but I really like the design of the deck! Did you get a chance to test it, what’s happening?

What’s the chromatic lantern for?

Mrsmileyface23 Part of the backup plan for shalai. Technically can still be animated too.

Rypunso I haven't gotten quite all the pieces for the new build but so far it's still testing on par when playing with friends. Holds up really well against mono red and golgari strategies with the life gain and constant pressure of flying. Haven't had the chance to take it to LGS though.

If I don't have DoomWhisperer and NicolBolas,theRavager now, have any other alternatives?

Anything big and flying. Stuff that sorts cards is best

the deck is nice, what do you think about Phylactery Lich? it would be difficult to launch??
