Artifacts decks?
Standard forum
Posted on Oct. 3, 2016, 5:56 p.m. by MagnusMTG
I just got a bunch of new Kaladesh crap, including a lot of artifacts of course, and I wanted to try a fun/casual mostly Kaladesh Standard deck that is chock-full of artifacts.
My question is two parts:1) What are the good artifacts to use, especially for artifact-artifact synergy?
Chief of the Foundry, and Foundry Inspector seem obvious; maybe the Modules?
2) What color(s) to mix in with the colorless?
I like some of the black cards with good artifact synergy: Syndicate Trafficker, Underhanded Designs, etc. but I don't know what else might work out.
Suggestions?
Right now I don't think there are enough good pure artifacts for the RB/UB Artifact Aristocrats style deck they seem to be going for.
You don't have enough pure artifacts to drain people out with Designs, and enough good ones to make it worth while.
There is something there with Scrounger etc

Try to stay away from vehicles. You will find out quickly they get shut down fast.Just go down through your cards you will find synergies an combos.

Try R/B artifacts. Cards like Inventor's Apprentice, Bomat Courier, and Scrapheap Scrounger are really nice and should go well with Syndicate Trafficker. I've been running a more aggro version with the new Unlicensed Disintegration, but I'm sure you could make a mid-range version work well too.

I agree with notsoclutchRed/black has alot to offer artifact synergies right now. Theres always old faithful red/blue as well.

One interesting interaction is between fabricate and chief of the foundry. I dont think it is a top tier strategy, but it might be something to keep an eye on for sure.

You don't need to shy away from Vehicles if you use them wisely.
The biggest issue is maintaining enough Crew, but Fabricate combined with Chief of the Foundry can take care of that.

i like the idea of going wide with servos and thopters in RW. Gives you two lords in Chief of the Foundry, and Master Trinketeer. Also access to red gives you Reckless Bushwhacker.
