Infect everything. Then proliferate. Then infect more. Then proliferate again. Platinum Emperion is snuck in more as a joke than anything else, but if I can clear the opponents creatures with proliferate then slap a Grafted Exoskeleton on it... fun can be had. While this deck is focused on artifacts that deal infect damage, the Plague Stinger s have an important place. They can be used to deal with fliers, and when the Semblance Anvil is on the field, they can be paired with an Infiltration Lens to replenish the cards in my hand.
The ideal starting hand has at least one of each land, an Infiltration Lens , a Wall of Tanglecord , one of any infect creature with 2 CMC, and the Semblance Anvil .
Turn 1: Infiltration Lens
Turn 2: First Creature
Turn 3: Semblance Anvil -> Exile any artifact in hand.
Turn 4: Start putting out artifacts for cheap, and dealing infect damage.
Turn 5: At this point, Contagion Clasp or Throne of Geth should be coming out to maximize the effectiveness of their proliferate ability.
Continue play to meet challenges as they arise. If it is possible to get a Grafted Exoskeleton out at the same time as a Wall of Tanglecord , you can weaken attackers as they come in as well. This can be dangerous though, as any destroy artifact spell can take out the Wall of Tanglecord by being used against the Grafted Exoskeleton .
Sideboard is crafted to modify the deck against fliers, but I may swap the Angelic Armaments for Doom Blade s to keep the mana curve low.
