Myr Retriever

Artifact Creature — Myr

When Myr Retriever dies (is put into the graveyard from the battlefield), return another target artifact card from your graveyard to your hand.

Exactly. You sac your Myr Retriever, the return trigger goes on the stack (with the Confusion trigger underneath it still on the stack). You'll pick an artifact and return it, and then the Confusion trigger tries to exchange two permanents, sees that one or more targets are not in the right zone to exchange anymore, and fizzles.

So in response to Confusion in the Ranks triggering when my Myr Retriever entered, I'm able to sac it, but Confusion's trigger would, basically, fizzle since the creature that triggered it is no longer on the battlefield?

This happened in a game I was in. I have a Mardu, Artifact-Aristocrat Deck and had played Confusion in the Ranks on field. Prior to this enchantment, I already had Ashnod's Altar and Foundry Inspector already on the field, and a Workshop Assistant already in the grave.

During my turn, I played Myr Retriever , Confusion triggers when it entered, and I chose to swap it with an opponents commander, Shadow the Hedgehog . Then, in response to the choice, I sacced my retriever with Ashnod's Altar , so I can keep my opponents Shadow, my opponent gets nothing, and I can bring loop by bringing my assistant back to hand from grave, then playing it for the 2 floating from the altar because inspector makes it cheaper to cast, Confusion triggers again, and I repeat the loop to steal all of my opponents creatures and artifacts.

My tabled agreed that I was able to do this, but I'm not so sure. So I am asking more experienced players if I am I able to do that? To exchange control of my creatures with there's, only to sac my creatures so I get their creatures and they get nothing?

Seth's build is a pretty swagged out way of playing heartless, thanks for sharing capwner.

I was considering doing something with Myr Retriever, but I couldn't find a way without making the whole deck about it.

I brewed heartless summoning once like a decade ago, my list used Myr Retriever to infinitely loop for free, draw the deck with Grim Haruspex or Fecundity and then kill with Simian Spirit Guide -> Grapeshot. Totally different from what you're going for by the looks of it! One list you might check out is mtggoldfish Seth's "Heartless Mom" brew, he uses Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines for double trigs off of stuff like Mulldrifter and Avalanche Riders with everything getting discounted from the summoning. It was a sweet deck but I think just not consistent enough to gain traction because the deck revolves around heartless and has no good way to find it. In my old deck I used stuff like Infernal Tutor and Spoils of the Vault to get the pieces, then Perilous Myr and Necropede were my chumps of choice bc they turned into free removal. Anyways gl with the build! Curious to see how it develops bc heartless summoning is an awesome card and seems like still nobody has reaaally been able to break it yet?

Seth's build here!

For starters you have one Murder too many in the main board.

If the focus is on leaving the graveyard or “Reanimate”, I personally would have nearly all of my creatures be artifact Creatures for starters. I would then utilize cards like Their Name is Death and Scrap Trawler.

Good cards for the theme you are suggesting

I have no idea why i did not add it on here as i do have a Power Plant Worker in the deck . I will check deck later on today to see what i took out. I have a Scarecrone that is better than Myr Retriever . Glissa, the Traitor *oversized* is nice but i do not have alot removal in the deck for her to work and she is only one card type which does not work with the theme. You may have noticed but i only have 2 creatures that are only one card type and that is Craterhoof Behemoth and Massacre Wurmfoil but they are there to be finishers for me. I did almost died to goaded birds tonight cause i had Coat of Arms out but Walking Ballista got me the win. I do enjoy playing this deck very much. I am working on new deck that i just started playing but will take awhile for that to get tweaked out to my liking. Thanks for the suggestions though and thanks for pointing out the plant for me.

What a great deck! A card that immediately sprang to mind when I read this, was Glissa, the Traitor *oversized*. Considering your overall concept, she would be soooo strong in this deck. Myr Retriever might also be worth considering. Lastly, couldn't help but notice that you've included Mine Worker and Tower Worker but not Power Plant Worker. Was that on purpose or was it an oversight?
