Very low budget explosive deck, updated for Dominaria.

This is an updated version of Creative Grixis Jank in Ixalan. Let me start out up front by saying this deck struggles a little more in playtesting than some of my past better ones. That said, it is still a fun interactive budget deck that can win games out of nowhere.

The combo is the same, but the backbone has changed. In order to set up the combo, we need to make lots of artifact tokens, which is one of the challenges during gameplay with other versions. This deck embraces that issue by taking a meta staple and adding the combo to it. The result is a modified version of Orzhov tokens with the combo as a secret weapon finisher. It is probably less efficient than the pure token deck, but is very fun and really surprising when the combo goes off.

The backbone of the token deck is: Anointed Procession and Hidden Stockpile. These work with our token generators, Marionette Master, fungla infection, and Servo Exhibition. We can sac a token in our main phase, get a scry which is very important as it lets us keep from drawing a Marionette Master or a Razaketh, the Foulblooded, and get the token back at the end step. It also allows us to "transform" a saproling token into a servo.

The basic premise is to survive to turn 6, with several servos on the board and a Cascading Cataracts in play. Then a single Indomitable Creativity essentially ends the game on the spot. The spell is effective because we have no artifacts in our deck, and the only creatures are 4 Marionette Master (MM) and one Razaketh, the Foulblooded. One MM is a nice card, but two or more are back breaking. Let one resolve to make servos, and one to be 4/6. Each servo that is removed from the board causes 5 (or more) loss of life to the opponent.

If you get a Razaketh, the Foulblooded, then he can sac the servos on the spot and trigger the MM drain before your opponent can do any stack shenanigans (they can destroy the MM before the fabricate trigger, but we'll still get tokens).

The hard part is to survive and get artifacts on the board. I tried making the deck RB only, which relied too much on hard casting a MM before it had tokens for the combo. I also have Esper and Grixis versions, which are OK but struggle with getting tokens or treasures.

Remember: the deck cannot have any other creatures or artifacts, or it could break the combo. This is a tight deck building limitation which has been both fun and challenging.

Non-budget options:Liliana, Death's Majesty works well in this deck with several synergies, and has been somewhat cheap lately.
