Return target artifact card from your graveyard to the battlefield.

Yeah the Magmatic Galleon just doesn't do enough to warrant spending a Refurbish and can't be hit by God-Pharaoh's Gift or Portal to Phyrexia. So I think if you want more removal Roast is a similar effect that is much cheaper.
Cathartic Reunion pulls double duty in the deck. It is worse that Thrill of Possibility being sorcery speed and needing to discard 2 cards as an additional cost. However the forced discard also benefits the deck. Sometimes your Cathartic Reunion gets countered and you don't get to draw cards, but you still get to fill your graveyard for later turns as the discard is required as a part of the casting cost. Sometimes you just want to fill your graveyard to reanimate, that is the power Cathartic Reunion brings.
In saying that, I do run both as both help the game plan!

cool deck dude. im sure you can use some sorceries or instants or stuff too? Prismatic Omen helps with color fixing. Refurbish could be nice. Chromatic Lantern is a good color fixing artifact. some good old removal like Doom Blade, Murder, Hero's Downfall, or even good old Lightning Bolt works too! these are a lot of random suggestions but basically try to add some more removal or utility cards?

For a set that has a big theme of digging up old machines and sending them into combat, there's not much in BRO that's better than Refurbish or Trash for Treasure. I was hoping for some more core pieces to update a Modern artifact reanimator deck.

twechsler on Messing with Lore

seshiro_of_the_orochi thank you for your suggestions. I am planning on adding Jhoira's Familiar because I think it will run very well in this deck. Thran Dynamo is another great one but I think I have a lot of mana ramp cards right now (about 16). In the future, I could swap that out for Burnished Hart or Excavation Technique as I think these are the worst mana cards right now. Similar story for Myr Retriever but I agree because he is very mana efficient. I have 9 cards for recursion not including osgir but I can definitely swap the myr in for Sun Titan or Refurbish. I know Lightning Greaves has some infinite combo ability because of its 0 mana cost to equip but I'll probably get the cheaper of the two unless you really think that its worth the extra dough. Once again thank you so much for taking the time to help me out.

Refurbish would allow a faster way to get Citadel onto the battefield, but you would need ways to dump it into your library, which are often G/B rather than W/B. I really like the idea though, especially if you’re able to activate the main angels you’d be earning more life per cast than paying. It’s really clever.
Maybe adding some delirium elements? Plus, splashing green could give you Vizier of Remedies + Devoted Druid for mana or even just Noble Hierarch or Birds of Paradise . Sorry, not super helpful.

Birds is a surprisingly well supported tribe, and flying tribal has been getting a fair bit of support recently. So building birds in commander can be both fun and powerful because you can combine old and new cards.
A creature has to be a Legendary creature to be legal as your commander. The classic option for birds would be Kangee, Aerie Keeper . Some other options that are more "Flying tribal" than bird tribal could be Kangee, Sky Warden (a very budget-friendly option), Isperia the Inscrutable , Akim, the Soaring Wind , Derevi, Empyrial Tactician or Alela, Artful Provocateur .
Now you should decide whether you want cards that support having Birds specifically: Aven Brigadier , Celestial Gatekeeper , Crookclaw Elder , Seaside Haven , Soulcatchers' Aerie , Airborne Aid , Migratory Route , Animal Sanctuary etc. Or if you just want cheap flyers that may or may not be birds and just play flying tribal: Battle Screech , Favorable Winds , Gravitational Shift , Gust of Wind , Island Sanctuary , Kangee's Lieutenant , Lofty Denial , Pride of the Clouds , Rally of Wings , Sephara, Sky's Blade , Siani, Eye of the Storm , Skycat Sovereign , Soulcatcher , The Raven's Warning , Thunderclap Wyvern , Tide Skimmer , Warden of Evos Isle , Watcher of the Spheres , Waterkin Shaman , Windstorm Drake , Winged Words , Battle Screech .
Your list has a lot of pretty bad cards that don't support your strategy. I would cut Healing Salve , Resupply , Take Up Arms , Call to Mind , Survival Cache , Refurbish (has 4 targets in your deck and no matter what you get you pay more mana than you should), Siegecraft etc. Pure lifegain spells are bad unless you build around them, and this is supposed to be a bird/flying deck right? Cards that make tokens without flying are not great because your lords and synergy don't make them better. So even though Raise the Alarm is a solid magic card, you would prolly rather have like a Mistral Charger because you can build synergy around it.
Removal is always good. You can almost never have too much of it. However, if you are really cool, you can try to play removal and card draw that is flavorful and synergistic as well: Ravenform , Wing Shards , Aerial Assault , Swan Song , Winged Words , Gust of Wind , Lofty Denial . Also, sol ring is great but more ramp is usually a good idea in commander, and Azorius Keyrune is also a bird!
Good luck with the screechy dudes!
abby315 on Breya, Etherium Shaper cEDH combo!
3 years ago
I'm definitely not up to date with the cEDH meta, but I have a few suggestions that I think are just better cards:
If it's just there to tutor a combo piece like Ironworks, I would think you'd want Tinker over Arcum Dagsson , especially because it can grab creature artifacts as well;
Whir of Invention should definitely be in here, maybe over Storm the Vault Flip which is slow;
You definitely should be running more interaction, especially in these colors. I'd recommend trying to fit in at least some of the following: Swan Song , Force of Negation , Flusterstorm , Mental Misstep , Opposition Agent , Pyroblast , Red Elemental Blast . If I had to make cuts, I'd start with the Mycosynth Lattice / Nevinyrral's Disk combo, which is slow; Open the Vaults and Refurbish since you don't have much self-mill to make these a speedier option for getting a combo out; and either the Time Sieve / Thopter Assembly combo because it's slow or the Felidar Guardian / Saheeli Rai combo because you don't have many ways to find it and neither piece is especially useful on its own.
I hope this helps! In general I think paring down the list to support 1-2 combo lines using Breya, then shoring up the protection for that combo, will serve you well.
