You'll love this card: Phyrexian Processor . Suppose you have 70 life (very easy with Trostani), and you decide to pay 40. You'll get at least 1 activation out of this artifact before it can be destroyed, gaining you the 40 life back. Then you populate it. Now you're sitting at 110 with 2 40/40s for further copying. Aetherflux Reservoir becomes a really good wincon at this point. And Felidar Sovereign . I wouldn't dedicate much deck space to lifegain, but these cards work well with it. Archangel of Thune , for example, is great because she works great alone and is even better with your commander out.

As for replacements, Trostani likes to go tall, but not wide. So I would get rid of cards that don't go tall enough, like Myr Battlesphere , Hooded Hydra , or Emeria Angel .

@Polupus

right i missed that on zada. she's really only good if i have goblins and a red x that gives +x/+o or similar. not for this deck unless i make tron goblins, which i don't feel should even be spoken of.

@jaymc1130 i figured that it being monored would make the colored spells not an issue, even though it is tron. I could also run Iron Myr and Palladium Myr , and make it more tron burn. Myr Battlesphere may also be good because of how cheap it is and how it's 7 colorless mana, and have the worldfire thing in as a jank wincon

There are plenty of other game-winning combos you can put in this deck, for sure.

There's the Dramatic Reversal + Isochron Scepter combo which only costs around $15 right now and can win with the Aetherflux Reservoir , Grapeshot , or Brain Freeze cards you already have in your deck.

For around $15, you could also add the Ashnod's Altar + Nim Deathmantle combo to generate infinite mana. You'd need to add a creature who makes more than 1 token on ETB, like Maverick Thopterist , Myr Battlesphere , and Whirler Rogue , which are possibly solid adds regardless of combo efficacy.

If you're looking for something cheaper, there's always Ghostly Flicker + Naru Meha, Master Wizard and a card with a game-winning ETB like Viashino Pyromancer , Halimar Excavator , or Sunscorched Desert . You can get all of these cards for under $2 total.

Also Dualcaster Mage + Twinflame to make infinite creatures with haste and swing to win, still super cheap. Dualcaster also can be used in place of Naru Meha above.

No Darksteel Citadel among your lands? A friend has the cute investment of putting an artifact land on the Prototype Portal so he can use it to just pump out lands in either their Saheeli or their Brudiclad deck. I forget which.

I could go either way on Steel Hellkite as a board wipe.

But I'm really surprised you don't have Myr Battlesphere . I'm not seeing anything else in your list that goes Oops, pile of artifacts! And it naturally synergizes with cards all over your list as a result. Plus altar+death mantle+battlesphere is infinite myr.

I'm not sure what I think in terms of their being such limited interaction. I get that it's easier to board wipe over spot removal for the cards available. Though might I suggest running 6-drop Ugin, the Ineffable ? The only synergy it lacks is that it's not an artifact itself and doesn't make artifacts. But it does make bodies, it does draw cards, it can blow up something super pesky, and it makes your artifacts cheaper to play.

I'm a big fan of Gate to the Afterlife and God-Pharaoh's Gift to act as pseudo-reanimation for your graveyard and turning just about anything into a populate-able token. A token generator I love to stick is Myr Battlesphere .

Jace's Archivist would pair nicely with Narset, Parter of Veils but otherwise, looks out of place to me. Good card, just unsure if this is the right deck for it. Storm the Vault  ^Flip is out of colors and would take Vault of Catlacan out. And Having Treasure Map  ^Flip doesn't necessarily count as a land with Treasure Cove . In EDH I don't like to help my opponents unless I can guarantee that it would help me more. So I try not to play cards like Minds Aglow , Words of Wisdom , or Howling Mine . I have nothing against Venser's Journal , I would simply rather play it as a land with Reliquary Tower . If gaining 3 life wins you the game, then stick with Revitalize . Otherwise, I think there are more, better ways to use this card slot.

All in all, wonderful deck idea!

More thoughts: What do you think of Thopter Assembly and it's interaction with Time Sieve ? Maybe with Myr Battlesphere as well? Now that you're starting to narrow down on colors, what do you think of running Sen Triplets ? it was one of my favorites. I'm not seeing a Sol Ring was that intentional? All Is Dust may make a good field sweep for you. Master Transmuter will help in getting big stompy out earlier. Demonic Tutor , Vampiric Tutor , or the like would definitely help you get tools you need to your hand quickly.

I hope that helps.

Not a single sword? Giving Lodestone Golem or Myr Battlesphere protection from 2 colors seems very good, especially with Grand Architect letting you equip pretty much for free. You could probably drop a Lavinia for Sword of Fire and Ice (budget permitting) or another sword that gives protection from whatever colors you play against often.
