This Satya, Aetherflux Genius deck is a Jeskai (blue, red, white) Commander deck that leverages energy generation, extra combat phases, and enter-the-battlefield (ETB) effects to overwhelm opponents. Central to the deck's strategy is Satya, Aetherflux Genius, whose ability to create token copies of creatures upon attacking facilitates various powerful synergies.

Primary Strategies:

Multiple Combat Phases: By attacking with creatures like Lightning Runner or Port Razer alongside Satya, the deck can generate additional combat phases. Each attack with Lightning Runner provides energy counters, and upon reaching a certain threshold, it allows for an extra combat phase. Similarly, Port Razer untaps all attacking creatures and grants an additional combat phase when it deals combat damage to a player. These interactions can lead to consecutive attacks, overwhelming opponents swiftly.

Cloning Damage-Dealing Creatures: Utilizing Satya's ability to create token copies, the deck can replicate creatures with potent ETB damage effects, such as Terror of the Peaks. Each new token copy triggers Terror of the Peaks, dealing significant damage to any target. This strategy allows for rapid reduction of opponents' life totals or elimination of key threats on the battlefield.

Energy Generation and Utilization: The deck incorporates cards that produce energy counters, which can be spent for various advantages. For instance, Gonti's Aether Heart generates energy upon artifact entries and can be sacrificed for an extra turn, providing additional opportunities to attack and trigger ETB effects. Decoction Module and Whirler Virtuoso synergize to produce energy and creature tokens, fueling both offensive and defensive plays.

Key Card Interactions:

Satya, Aetherflux Genius + Lightning Runner: Attacking with both allows the creation of a token copy of Lightning Runner, accumulating energy counters rapidly. Once sufficient energy is amassed, multiple combat phases can be initiated, leading to potential infinite attacks under the right conditions.

Satya, Aetherflux Genius + Port Razer: When Port Razer deals combat damage, it untaps all creatures and grants an extra combat phase. With Satya producing token copies of Port Razer, this can result in continuous combat phases, especially if opponents are unable to block effectively.

Satya, Aetherflux Genius + Terror of the Peaks: Creating token copies of Terror of the Peaks leads to multiple instances of its damage-dealing ETB effect. Each new token can deal damage equal to its power to any target, enabling the deck to dispatch opponents or troublesome creatures efficiently.

By combining these strategies, the deck aims to maintain pressure through repeated combat phases, efficient energy utilization, and leveraging powerful ETB effects to control the board and diminish opponents' resources.
