Blue Black Capitalism (Standard MTG Deck)

Blue Black deck built around Revel in Riches and Tezzeret the Schemer for Ixalan standard. The deck aims to use treasures and other artifacts to generate value through improvise cards such as Herald of Anguish, Battle at the Bridge revolt cards, particularly Fatal Push and perhaps even Vengeful Rebel and general artifacts matter cards likeDeadeye Plunderers and the previously mentionedTezzeret the Schemer to generate repeated value and force the opponent to answer our artifacts.

Some advantages the deck has is that it should ideally be versatile, capable of addressing both control decks through using Tezzeret the Schemer and Herald of Anguish to generate value from treasure tokens/ treasure map other midrange decks by assuming a more controlling role by resolving a Revel in Riches and then playing removal to generate our win condition.

Some interesting things to note with the deck:

Treasure tokens allow us to tap out while still holding on to cheap removal like Fatal Push, which gets the revolt trigger from sacrificing the treasure, keeping the opponent on edge.
Treasures let us easily splash other colors, such as red for Nicol Bolas, God-Pharaoh or The Locust God, or green for Vraska.
There is a surprising amount of life gain in the deck through a combination of Battle at the Bridge, Vraska's Contempt, and Filigree Familiar, which can be helpful against the more all in aggro decks like Ramunap Red.
Battle at the Bridge and Tezzeret the Schemer are capable of addressing the Amonkhet gods, as they use life reduction instead of damage, giving us multiple solutions for dealing with those problematic creatures.

Any help in tuning and improving the deck is greatly appreciated and feel free to recommend any cards you think might help the deck function better. Until next time!

(P.S. The deck also needs a more fitting name, so help with that would also be nice)
