My attempt at a Sphinx deck worth playing.

64 cards because why not?

ZERO DROP: Welding Jar, Paradise Mantle, and one Mox Opal

• Early Board presence, Ramp, and Protection

ONE DROP: Steel Wall, Galvanic Blast

• More Board Presence, and some Burn

TWO DROP: Remand, Etherium Sculptor, Lightning Greaves, Cranial Plating

• Some early game Control/Draw, and the first Artifact Creature for cheaper spells

• Shroud and Haste

• and some Bolster for later..

THREE DROP: Warden of Evos Isle

• First Flyer is introduced --> Spells are even cheaper

FOUR DROP: Master Transmuter, Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

• Cheaper spells again, and now the opponent will have a harder time casting too

• Transmuter is a wonderful way to protect and/or cheat in the more expensive creature spells

"FIVE" DROP: Sphinx Summoner, Thoughtcast

• These spells will never cost Five to play

• A Fetch spell that is also a Flyer

• Some more Draw (two cards) if it is needed

HEAVY HITTERS:

• Sphinx of the Steel Wind - Flying, First Strike, Vigilance, Lifelink etc..

• Medomai the Ageless - Extra Turns!

• Sharuum the Hegemon - Return ANY artifact to the battlefield

• Filigree Angel - MASSIVE Lifelink just in case!

.

WIN CONDITION 1:

• Cast Medomai the Ageless and equip Lightning Greaves. Swing with every creature for two turns.

WIN CONDITION 2:

• Equip Cranial Plating on any Heavy Hitter and swing for the win.

Let me know what you think. This is a really fun deck, but I wonder if it would be competitive enough for Modern. Any advice is much appreciated, thanks for looking!
