I already had added the others but Chrome Mox I didn't think about it because I didn't realize the imprint was "may"

See if there's room for Phyrexian Metamorph . I'm a big fan of copy effects in EDH, its always good.

Hey DrkNinja, I'd be happy to help! First thing you should do is pick out a background and then we can build on that.

mana vault, mana crypt, and copy artifact did not become bad cards with Urza. They let you cast him faster.

@scotchtapedsleeves I'd really like the artwork for the card but... this will do.

DrkNinja A picture that would work well as a desktop picture would work much better as a background here. I can make it work with that picture but there will be black bars on the side where the picture doesn't show up

@scotchtapedsleeves... I figured since it was 4k x 3k it'd work... um gimme a sec.

@scotchtapedsleeves Maybe this? It's 2.5k x 1.5k

I also like Tezzeret the Seeker for this deck. For 5 mana he can tutor and play a 4 cmc artifact right away. One especially nasty use is to get Static Orb and then use his first ability to get around the drawback on static orb. Or get Paradox engine on his second turn alive. He can defend himself by putting up blockers, but you will usually win if you untap with him at 5 (Urza and the Karn counter curve into him and blocks effectively for him) , get paradox engine, and go off.

Vedalken Archmage ? Might be too slow.

Since you're going balls deep, you can play with faster lands like Ancient Tomb but I assume you have work to do on the manabase

DrkNinja Looks like the same size, something like this would be much better

Most people on the site use it on computer so it's best if you choose an image that will fill the background of the site on a computer

@smack80 Already cut Archmage. I actually cut Tezz originally too because of the high CMC but... you make a good argument. I think I'll add him again.

Also yea still working on the mana base.

Also @scotchtapedsleeves how would one create columns of text?

@smack80 Honestly I just don't think they are nessecary. I couldn't think of a card slot that would be better served for training grounds.

I think 32 lands may be a little light. I know he turns all the artifacts he makes into extra mana but I would still want to guarantee those early land drops to get to Urza. Maybe get it up to 34 or 35.

May 22, 2019 2:54 p.m.

DrkNinja Perfect! I'll make you a deck and a sheet to change. Not entirely sure how you could make columns of text, what are you trying to do?

DrkNinja says... #18

In card selection, I have 3 cards in a row, it'd be cool to match their text under each card. I know it's possible because I've seen it but... I don't know complex coding just the basics.

May 22, 2019 3:21 p.m.

I've realized while playing my own version that I need Vedalken Orrery . 'Tis nuts with Unwinding Clock .

What's WIP?

DrkNinja says... #20

@Rambolicious_0 Work In Progress.

Also if you are going to play Orrery, just play Leyline of Anticipation instead. theres a chance you get it for free, if not it has the same CMC. But honestly I don't think its nessecary if your curve is low enough to the ground.

May 22, 2019 3:49 p.m.

DrkNinja I didn't find the issue to be curve. I just couldn't wait a full turn rotation. But yeah, I suppose it's not a must.

I personally think that there are not enough cards for card draw included. I've had that problem in my artifact deck Saheeli's Ironworks (KCI) [Primer], so maybe consider Stroke of Genius , Consecrated Sphinx or Ghirapur Orrery (don't underestimate the effect in an artifact deck; also perfect against control decks - not so against aggressive ones) just to name very effective one.

On the other side: I like your ideas very much, well done so far.

Seeing as you're super dedicated combo, have you considered Ancestral Knowledge ? That's a LOT of digging for combo pieces.

May 22, 2019 5:23 p.m.

Hmm not so sure about the text being like that, sorry.

I know it's possible but I've never done it

DrkNinja says... #25

@thom-le Honestly, I think that Stroke might be worth playing, plus it's super on flavor. As far as your Saheeli deck goes, I play a Jhoira deck that is basically this deck plus red, and it never stops drawing cards; I think she'd be a good add. I also think Jhoira is far superior as a commander than Saheeli is, she's great in the 99 though.

@Last_Laugh Yea getting to Engine, and/or Dramatic Scepter has been a bit rough I just don't think that Knowledge is the answer I'm looking for... maybe another tutor for Fabricate/Transmute Artifact/Reshape... Any ideas? I can't think of any at the time.
