Syrdi, Galvanic Genius is an incredibly strong esper commander. Being able to animate non-creature artifacts into creatures and then giving them lifelink and deathtouch. A lot of people will build a similar deck with Sharuum the Hegemon but in my experiences, it makes you a target more often than Sydri will. Her synergy with many of the artifacts is perfect for what my needs were. I generally don't like to play extra turn spells or counters, but spell swindle is on the maybeboard.

Please let me know if you have any ideas for additions or combos.

She is a combo/synergy intensive deck and utilizes the following:

Aetherflux Reservoir + Sydri, Galvanic Genius + 51(+) Life total = Infinite Life & Infinite Damage at the cost of only UWB.

Mycosynth Lattice + Sydri, Galvanic Genius = Targeted Land Destruction for the cost of 1 mana. If we add Revel in Riches It's a win condition.

Memnarch + Mycosynth Lattice + Infinite Mana = Gain Control of All Permanents that don't have shroud or hexproof.

Capsize + Infinite Mana = Infinite Instant Bounce

Darksteel Forge + Nevinyrral's Disk + Unwinding Clock = Non-Land Boardwipe every players turn.

Caltrops + Sydri, Galvanic Genius = Destroy any attacking creature for WUB.

Staff of Nin + Sydri, Galvanic Genius = Targeted Creature destruction for WUB.

Rite of Replication + Sydri, Galvanic Genius = 1 or 5 of any artifact in play.

Grand Architect + Pili-Pala = Infinite Mana

Basalt Monolith + Power Artifact = Infinite Colorless Mana

Basalt Monolith + Rings of Brighthearth = Infinite Colorless Mana

Exsanguinate + Infinite Mana = Infinite Life and Infinite Loss of Life (to opponents)

Staff of Domination + Infinite Mana = Infinite Life, Infinite Card Draw, Infinitely tap or untap any creature or artifact thanks to Sydri

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion = Infinite Damage

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Sydri, Galvanic Genius = Give artifacts Undying

I realize there are so many cards that can be used because there is so much synergy among artifacts, the fact that Sydri can animate any artifact and give it deathtouch makes her a force to be reckoned with. I may not have all the cards that work great with her but I'm working with what I have at the moment.

Currently the win outlets/conditions include:

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion

Memnarch + Mycosynth Lattice + Infinite Mana

Exsanguinate + Infinite Mana

Darksteel Forge + Mycosynth Lattice + Nevinyrral's Disk

Aetherflux Reservoir + Sydri, Galvanic Genius

Capsize + Infinite Mana

Revel in Riches
