This deck runs 20x 0 CMC artifacts to power Sai, Master Thopterist and Mirrodin Besieged . Those 0 CMC artifact turn into Mox Sapphires once Urza, Lord High Artificer hits the battlefield. This gives you a tank of mana for Urza's final ability, or just to cast everything in your hand. Karn, the Great Creator gives us access to his ever valuable tool box, letting us lock the opponent out with a Mycosynth Lattice or Bottled Cloister + Ensnaring Bridge or just letting us wreak havoc with Ghost Quarter and Blast Zone by grabbing Crucible of Worlds . Paradoxical Outcome lets us return all our 0 CMC cards from play to our hand, then draw that many cards, usually netting us even more 0 CMC cards and occasionally another Paradoxical Outcome . Play the 0 drops, gain the thopters, kick some butt. Since we don't run any 1 or 2 CMC cards, Chalice of the Void becomes an easy pick, letting us shut down most of the meta which so heavily relies on the 1 and 2 CMC slots. Many of our artifacts sacrifice themselves for some effect, letting us fill our graveyard. Mirrodin Besieged gives us an alternate win-con, so once we have a total of 15 artifacts in our graveyard and or ready to be sac'd then we can drop a Mirrodin Besieged for the second option and win at your end step, or drop a Paradoxical Outcome on an existing Mirrodin Besieged to play it again for the second ability.

TLDR: Make Thopters. Win.
