Darksteel Plate

Artifact — Equipment

Darksteel Plate is indestructible.

Equipped creature is indestructible. (Damage and effects that say "destroy" don't destroy it.)

Equip (: Attach this to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This enters the battlefield unattached and stays on the battlefield if the creature this card is attached to leaves the battlefield.)

You need Hammer of Nazahn, Grafted Exoskeleton, Shadowspear and Open the Armory. Mana Crypt, Mana Vault, and Mox Opal if possible.

Cuts:

Adaptive Automaton (clunky, what are you choosing??)

Benalish Marshal (too mana intensive for so little impact)

Bladegraft Aspirant (same)

Burnished Hart (too slow)

Chief of the Foundry (too much mana for so little impact)

Eivor, Battle-Ready (way too expensive)

Kassandra, Eagle Bearer (not really cost efficient since you don't have the spear)

Militia Bugler (not good)

Mother of Runes -> Giver of Runes

Novice Knight (not good)

Thraben Inspector (not really refined for your game plan)

Darksteel Plate -> Mithril Coat

Explorer's Scope (not good)

Haunted Plate Mail (not good)

Ring of Thune (not good)

Sword of Hours (not good)

Sword of the Paruns (not very good)

Hieromancer's Cage -> Borrowed Time

Pacifism (not good)

Stasis Snare -> Grasp of Fate

Council's Judgment (this card sucks)

Visions of Ruin -> Vandalblast

Hey hey khayoz!

I went all in on go wide as my first version. It had all the Heroic spells and concentrated on buff and damage spells, no voltron:

Buff:
Metallic Mimic
Roar of Resistance
Heraldic Banner
Coat of Arms
Shared Animosity
Obelisk of Urd
Signal Pest
Konda's Banner
Eldrazi Monument
Dynacharge
Weapon Surge
Ogre Battledriver

Damage:
Throne of the God-Pharaoh
Hellrider
Impact Tremors
Witty Roastmaster
Livewire Lash

It played pretty well. Board wipes were absolutely the killer. The game becomes adding the right amount of creatures and damage without overextending. Also sometimes my little kobolds were outclassed by more powerful creatures and couldn't attack. I could have added Dolmen Gate and evasion but then we are leaving my playgroup's budget behind. This is where I discovered Descent of the Dragons and thought it would be a great finisher that's also a "buff" spell and on theme. Then that led me to Transmogrify and I've never looked back.

But the overlap approach can do work. Like Draconic Destiny adds to your voltron threat but it also enables Rosnakht to attack giving the kobolds the buff they desperately need. Dynacharge and Weapon Surge are modal so you can buff the whole team or sneak in a voltron kill.

I haven't tested all in voltron. But indestructibility might be important. Mithril Coat, Darksteel Plate, Commander's Plate, and Hammer of Nazahn might be worth a try. I just wanted something with more sizzle, style wise.

Hope this helps! Let me know what you learn!

GetZombified Darksteel Plate stands out to me. Beyond that I'd probably say Cancel and maybe an Island or two.

Played this tonight and I am still 14 cards short of the full deck. It was a lot of fun but I got targetted real quick.

Two things: Have you considered using Mithril Coat over Darksteel Plate?

Second, how does a typical early game go for you? I feel like playing on curve, which I did, makes it too easy for opponents to keep you shut down.

HeadinPants I brought up a couple of combo decks because they are easy examples, but it applies to other styles too. Grixis Stax has us locked down, and no one can break us out? Scoop. Mono Red Jhoirah has Darksteel Plate equipped to the commander, and no has exile effects? Scoop. The Boros Iroas deck has just cracked one player for 78 damage, and the other two players don't have a board wipe? We scoop.

We have a varied meta in our playgroup, both in terms of deck styles and power levels, but the quick scoop is something we do all the time.

Falkenrath Forebear an upgraded Ichorid for the strategy.

Last Laugh too crazy? You might need to add Darksteel Plate.

Profet93 I should for sure make a snow deck at some point! And I get what you’re saying with commander plate but I don’t own it, might poach Darksteel Plate from another deck as Imodane is definitely a target.

Appreciate the feedback!
