Saheeli's 3D printer side hustle [Primer]

ArantirTheDestroyer excellent point! My main reasoning is sadly you can't activate planeswalker abilities on other people's turns, so if you activate the spell on a separate turn you lose the advantage of saheeli and will only be able to cast it normally for an x cost of 2-5 while basically holding up your mana, and usually it's a lot more worth it to draw 10+ cards and see if you can't pull together a win or a dominant board state.
However I constantly think about Stroke of Genius if nothing because it actually becomes a win condition or player kill when you go infinite or if a player gets too greedy with their drawing

Saheeli's 3D printer side hustle [Primer]

Query: Why Mind Spring when there are instant-speed options like Pull from Tomorrow, Stroke of Genius, or Blue Sun's Zenith? I run Blue Sun's in my own Izzet artifact deck, Assembling the Legacy (Which, to be perfectly fair, I'm currently in the process of redesigning, so...)
Either way, I love the deck, always like to see other artifact players floating around the Interwebs! One card I would suggest is Saheeli's Directive, which should've come in the Saheeli precon (It's literally the reason I bought that precon!).

Planned Land Changes
- Treetop Village -> Branchloft Pathway Flip
- Vesuva -> Spara's Headquarters
- Dryad Arbor -> Seaside Citadel
Planned Flicker Changes
- Green Sun's Zenith -> Wall of Omens
- Threats Undetected -> Wall of Blossoms
- Gilded Lotus -> Farhaven Elf
- Yavimaya Elder -> Wood Elves
- Explore -> Mystical Tutor
- Turnabout -> Preston, the Vanisher
- Stroke of Genius -> Solemn Simulacrum
- Angel of Serenity -> Sun Titan
- Turnabout -> Emiel the Blessed
- Acidic Slime -> Reclamation Sage
-
These changes are intended to streamline the deck by reducing the overall average cmc of the deck or reducing coloured pips in low cost spells. There's also a shift towards more ETB creatures rather than instants or sorceries for bread and butter effects.

Hey Lol_counterspell! I appreciate the suggestions(?) As you'll notice, the deck is Nids tribal and not a specific X deck. To that effect, no, I didn't put in Rosheen Meanderer. However, when I considered something to that effect, it was Thran Dynamo since for the same cost and 1 less mana given, it's not as easy of a target for removal, I can use it the same turn I play it, and I can use it for anything. Genesis Wave doesn't provide any Ravenous triggers when I hit Nids so that was also out. I kept Starstorm over Comet Storm. Finally, I will probably be adding a Stroke of Genius but don't have a foil one yet. I also went back and forth over it since the nature of Nids is card draw on Ravenous but having the extra draw source also doesn't seem bad.

If you didn't wanna run any of the infinites Seedborn Muse would still be incredibly powerful with any of the instant speed draw spells (Blue Sun's Zenith / Commander's Insight / Diviner's Portent / Drown in Dreams / Even the Score / Pull from Tomorrow / Stroke of Genius). Could easily draw the whole deck for a Thassa's Oracle / Laboratory Maniac / Jace, Wielder of Mysteries win.
Also pairs really well with all the X cost counterspells Condescend / Syncopate / Power Sink / Logic Knot / Clash of Wills.
Just some more food for thought.

This commander is bonkers. Looking forward to building around her myself.
Doesn't look like you're going for the spell slinger route, but Seedborn Muse with any of the instant speed draw spells (Blue Sun's Zenith / Commander's Insight / Diviner's Portent / Drown in Dreams / Even the Score / Pull from Tomorrow / Stroke of Genius / Thassa's Intervention) would be really good here. Could easily draw the whole deck for a Thassa's Oracle / Laboratory Maniac / Jace, Wielder of Mysteries win.
Since you're going the creature based route Kindred Discovery / Herald of Secret Streams / Open Into Wonder.
Some other generic good stuff for a deck like this Nyxbloom Ancient / Selvala, Heart of the Wilds / Mana Reflection / Pest Infestation.
