Sideboard


Izzet Saheeli Infinite Combo Kinda Budget Deck

This deck uses three piece combo Altar of the Brood + Liquimetal Coating + Saheeli Rai which can be arranged in three turns.

On her home plane of Kaladesh, Saheeli is a famous inventor renowned as the most brilliant metalsmith of her time. She's best known for the bewitchingly lifelike artifact constructs she crafts out of gleaming iridescent metal. From the smallest insect to the largest elephant, Saheeli has an uncanny ability to replicate any creature she sees, capturing the essence of its life in her metal creation. Admirers, collectors, and investors flock to see her designs, spending hours gazing, enraptured by her artistry. Saheeli's talents extend beyond what the people of Kaladesh realize or understand. She's a Planeswalker with a powerful magical command over metal. She can access seemingly endless threads of metal, which she can then weave into one of her creations. And once created, Saheeli's magic allows her to compel her metal constructs to do her bidding. Thanks to her abilities, she's never at a loss for an artifact companion. Lately she lost intrest of making such imperfect being like insects, wildcats or elephants out of metal and started making only construct that are perfect in her narcissistic eyes - herself.
Play any land, then tap it for mana and play Altar of the Brood .
Play another land, then tap both lands for mana and play Liquimetal Coating
Play another land. At this point you'll need at least one and one , and of course one mana of any color for your final spell. This shouldn't be any problem because there are 12 and 19 mana lands in this deck. Tap your lands for mana and play Saheeli Rai . Then tap Liquimetal Coating and use its activated ability on Saheeli Rai . Now she's a artifact and can be target of her second (-2) ability. Copy her and sacrifice first one due to the principle of uniqueness. Copied token of her it's an artifact in addition to its other types so it also can be target of her second (-2) ability. Repeat that process infinite amount of times milling opponent using Altar of the Brood . In other cases you can also finish your opponents with Reckless Fireweaver .
To help you get all the combo pieces this deck has Whir of Invention which can get Altar of the Brood or Liquimetal Coating for you or if it's needed artifacts which are normally is sideboard such as Elixir of Immortality , Relic of Progenitus , Torpor Orb or Spellskite . Another helpful card is Glint-Nest Crane which fulfills the same purpose as Whir of Invention , tutoring Altar of the Brood or Liquimetal Coating from library - in this case from top four cards of it. Glint-Nest Crane is most aficient turn after Serum Visions . Last but not least are transmute cards which can get for you all combo pieces. Their main advantage is that the transmute ability is an activated ability, which makes it harder to counter than typical tutors like Whir of Invention . With Drift of Phantasms you can search your library for Saheeli Rai . Muddle the Mixture searches for Liquimetal Coating or Reckless Fireweaver and Dizzy Spell which I don't use can search for and Altar of the Brood . Rest of the spells in deck are mainly for protectiong combo pieces. Those cards are Remand , Swan Song , Muddle the Mixture and Hope of Ghirapur . Hope of Ghirapur 's activated ability main task is to protect Saheeli Rai from counterspells while I have rest of the combo pieces on board. It can be occasionally used to slow down decks based on noncreature spells too. Sideboard consists mainly of hate for other decks, slowing aggro etc. One of my favourite cards in sideboard is Smelt because it can work as normal hate on enemy's key artifact cards or as combo with Liquimetal Coating resulting in ability to destroy any permanent. Some artrifacts occurs in sideboard individually because they can be tutored by Whir of Invention . Let me know what do you think down below. I'm also looking for your help in future changes as well as with establishing sideboard. Leave a thumb up if you like it!
