Breya, Etherium Shaper, is an outlet in your command zone that you can abuse with infinite mana. Combos like: Bomber man (Auriok Salvagers + Lion's Eye Diamond, and untap combos like dramatic scepter (card:Isocron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal and Paradox Engine + card:Isocron Scepter + any legal spell. With these engines they give us the ability to cast Breya, Etherium Shaper and have her sacrifice herself to her ability with one of her Thopters to bolt a player, then Rinse and Repeat.

Why go risky with the combo?

While having a quick combo and also a slow one; we tend to try to focus on looking for openings and controlling others to our best ability. This deck is more of a Stainglass cannon. While having wires to hold us together, we can still lose the beauty of our deck. While making infinite mana is our only engine and it is easy to assemble which allows us to go of quicker then average mid range decks. We risk dying to hate pieces like Cursed Totem and Aven Mindcensor.

There are plenty of other strategies like:

Counterbalance with Sensei's Divining Top gives us avenues of controlling players and works well with our fetch lands and top tutor spells to switch the tops of our decks during different turns.

Notion Thief + a Wheel effect to gives us serious card advantage, while also punishing others playing wheels also.

Transmute Artifact and Breya, Etherium Shaper lets you cheat out Paradox Engine a bit quicker then normal especially if we can find it. Transmute Artifact allows us to get key combo artifacts we need without the worry of casting them without hinting at what we are getting with said card. also really great bait card for fear of counterspell in risky situations.

While hate, for this deck is pretty obvious, especially with the rise of Bloodpod decks (especially in my meta). The deck offers some resilience from removal package and also cards like Yawgmoth's Will and Jace, Vryn's Prodigy   for card recursion.

Now, Breya is not just an outlet she offers utility from taking out problem creatures, gaining us life back to work with Ad Nauseam, or just a pretty decent beater or blocker if all else fails.

Why not play green?

I do not play green because I want to see diverse games within my meta. While running green might offer the most optimize synergies and also, some of the best ramp in the game. I feel that playing outside of the box is better and I feel like I made a decent deck that does what I want while being different. I haven't seen much like it yet, but I am proud of the build. Not saying its the best in every category. Hopefully you find this small deck tech of Breya Mid range helpful and you enjoy the deck. Let me know your thoughts and if you do like it 1+.

Searching strategies later on.
