Artifact

Academy Ruins > Buried Ruin. Now with that said because of you I have added Buried Ruin into so many non{U} decks.

Storage Matrix is worth noting. You mentioning it made me realize I'm missing Static Orb. This deck is about to get even meaner.

Which one is meaner: Static Orb or Storage Matrix?

Nooooo. How many plainswalkers are in this game!?

Looking over this I'm thinking I need to cut a playset of creatures for card draw.

Winter Moon, Winter Orb, God-Pharaoh's Statue, Orb of Dreams, Storage Matrix, Freyalise's Winds, Defense of the Heart and Sandwurm Convergence all feel like they are worth considering.

CamraMaan on Storage Matrix timing question

When my turn begins, and Storage Matrix is tapped, am I getting past its trigger? Or is it going to untap in time to include itself as untapped?

I like this idea, but I feel like it needs some draw power and big payoffs - a couple playtests and I was sitting on lands and myr without a big 'this is how I win the game'.

I think the biggest thing would be leaning into green for Winding Way. It would let you grab myrs for the myr gameplan or grab tronlands in the top cards of your library, as well as opening up Ancient Stirrings which finds every card in your deck.

Icon of Ancestry / Brass Herald offers this kind of effect at a higher cmc but colourless.

The difference between 'big mana' tron myr rather than more 'artifacts cost less' myr is that it changes combo options - Myr Retriever loops and Heartless Summoning isn't going to do well. You need some big artifacts that stick and turn your myr into big threats - the myr tribal artifacts only do sorta okay at this, but they're a little light on synergy with each other.

If you want big winning combos, its more likely to be Kuldotha Forgemaster type cards that grab a big artifact threat - most of which would be lore appropriate.

I've had fun with Trading Post in these lists, alongside Myr Sire/Genesis Chamber to create a 'value until your opponent runs out of cards' style, but it does need the myr to be able to trade efficiently.

Trying to stick something like Vanquisher's Banner then play your entire deck, or run things like Thoughtcast, Lead the Stampede or Thought Monitor (with the artifact taplands) are all neat options but would take a lot bigger changes. A slow list built around using myr as mana dorks, artifact lands and Storage Matrix has some potential too, but all these options are getting further away from what the list currently is.

Have fun, and good luck with the playtesting.

Hi there friend! Nice deck :)

I was thinking in that you might need a way to make sure your opponents have creatures, so I would suggest Forbidden Orchard and Dowsing Dagger  ^Flip (with a flyer you can flip it easilly) to give creatures.

Also if you want to be a bastard Storage Matrix could go great in your deck, making your opponents to choose between untaping creatures and lands.

See you :)

Frustrating. I mean to play against.

You have a good list. One suggestion I don't see enough of is In the Eye of Chaos , which I think would be useful to you since most of your instant spells are very low MV. If you did that, though, you'd want to replace Convolute with Mana Leak , or even Spell Pierce . And I'm not sure how the X spells would interact with that either, but honestly I've never liked spells like Clash of Wills and such. I've always found that a good-'ol Counterspell or even something like Wizard Replica is generally more mana efficient for the same result.

Also, Damping Sphere and Storage Matrix . And I personally wouldn't use Defense Grid , because it would hurt you too much. Ok, I'm done.

Well, I highly suggest picking up these stax cards like Winter Orb , Static Orb , Trinisphere and Storage Matrix .

For a less competitive scene Watchdog , Genesis Chamber , Blinkmoth Urn and Howling Mine

The dragon breaks parity with all of those cards :)
