tron doesn't really work unless you have things that can help you draw/search for the urza lands. things like Chromatic Star, Chromatic Sphere, Expedition Map, Sylvan Scrying, Ancient Stirrings, and Crop RotationGC. best case scenario for tron is 7 mana turn 3 if you hit all the urza lands, but almost all your creatures cost 9 and up.

This is sick, have you considered Bannerhide Krushok as another way to combo with Witness (non-inf, thoughbeit). Also maybe use a permanent like Vessel of Nascency as your Ancient Stirrings? I think this is better because A. vessel mills cards to grab with witness, and B. Witness can recur the vessel itself for more digging. Then I think you really want ~3 Tormod's Crypt over relic in your board because you can recur this repeatedly with the Witnesses unlike relic and this is very oppressive for graveyard decks.

Ancient Stirrings seems like a must. I know modern Tron decks that run it and it seems great here too.

Hi jonjonhholt,

Thanks for the suggestions! Pinnacle Kill-Ship is very interesting because it can be dug for using Ancient Stirrings and Malevolent Rumble while also eventually becoming a threat. What would you suggest cutting to make room? If it is interaction I would lean towards Breath Weapon as I have Rolling Thunder for that role in a pinch, if I were to cut a threat it would be between Avenging Hunter and Writhing Chrysalis. That being said I do like both those threats in the deck.

Thanks again for the suggestions!

Because of how strong the Urza's lands are, I would consider adding cards to help you find them, such as Ancient Stirrings, Malevolent Rumble, Sylvan Scrying, and/or Expedition Map.

Stirrings and Rumble also help you find your big bads, which is quite useful.

Cloudy2024 I didn't even consider Ancient Stirrings to be honest. it fits quite well, especially because I am considering another playset of a sac outlet like Spawning Pit *list* or Altar of Dementia. A bit of a shame that it does not find anything else but these artifacts and lands, but I will for sure try it, thanks!

Maybe add Ancient Stirrings to search for Blasting Station? Overall, great deck!

while i realize that Myr Scrapling can be searched via Ancient Stirrings and Malevolent Rumble, you could alternatively use Snakeskin Veil or Revitalizing Repast  ^Flip as a way to add a counter, that also protects your combo pieces from removal.
