I love seeing other people do cycles of Amonkhet gods. It's my favorite plane and it makes me kinda sad that everyone talks crap about them. lol

Fiery Emancipation works wonders in my Hazoret deck. Any damage doubler, really. Firestorm is also great for dumping cards from hand and dealing damage at the same time.

KBK7101 you know, I ran Fiery Emancipation for a while, and just never felt like there was a good time to cast it... i always discarded it. Hahahah. I imagine it would be do way better in a more discard oriented build than this voltron style. Maybe i’ll revisit it later.

Firestorm is awesome!! I still plan on trying it out. Need to buy one.

My first deck was God-Eternal Rhonas and I didn’t build another deck until I finished the cycle. I love each one of them, and will never deconstruct them. They’re my bbs.

I have one for each of the regular Amonkhet gods. They're some of my favorites, too! I don't have them posted on here, though. Maybe I'll add them this weekend...

As for the voltron theme, maybe something like Kusari-Gama or Inquisitor's Flail ? They're relatively cheap equipments that I have in my Hazoret deck that have been a pretty big deal in games I've cast them in.

KBK7101 I love both of those suggestions... especially Kusari-Gama . Man, that’s a goodie!! Now to figure out what to cut.

Null Brooch has some decent synergy with Hazoret the Fervent ^^

Oh sorry, I didn't notice your artifacts weren't ranked alphabetically, I see you already play it ^^

Did a bit of reworking, as KBK7101 pointed out some great cards that I overlooked or had decided against at one point or another.

Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs was dropped for Kusari-Gama because they serve a similar purpose in preventing/discouraging blockers or attacker (can’t attack if you blocked and have no creatures), and it won’t be board wiped like Kazuul.

Daretti, Scrap Savant was meant to be card advantage and artifact recurral, but as great as he is, he cost a fair bit, and is fragile. I slotted Firestorm in in his spot. Another board wipe/discard outlet was definitely needed.

Illusionist's Bracers were an alternate win con, but the deck doesn’t really keep enough cards in hand to reliably pull it off, even with some of the janky artifact based draw and recur lines that can be pieced together. Repercussion does the job much better; there’s a LOT of damage bases effects that hit multiple creatures. This card is going to be an all star.

Now that we no longer rely on discard as an alternate win con, we’re leaning a little more into voltron and adding another big equipment to make Hazoret deadly. Enter Inquisitor's Flail . Boom. Hazoret make people dead real good with this, and since my ramp is entirely artifact based, it’s more reliable than Blackblade Reforged . We dropped Aggravated Assault for this since i’m not running Neheb, the Eternal to make infinite combat steps. May revisit this later, but I don’t usually have much spare mana to dump into it, so i feel fine with the swap.

Let me know what y’all think!

I love Hazoret, I've played her as EDH commander when she came out, and yeah I used many cards you have here.

Sadly I disassembled the deck just because I had more projects and needed the cards. But someday I have to rebuild her, thanks for sharing your deck I'll give me some nice ideas!!!

I will be making some sweeping changes to the deck in the next couple of days.

MH2 brought us some goodies ( Liquimetal Torque , Brainstone Diamond Lion ?!?) but I also needed the deck to dig for answers better, while still being able to reliably dump my hand and swing with Hazoret to win. Hence the rework.

I’m not 100% on the changes yet, but i know all the mediocre ramp and fetches to fuel the valakut line are going. It just never did much work for the strain and inefficiency it caused in the land base and ramp package.

While i’m working on it, if anyone has good ideas for artifact recurral engines, or cheap hand dumping effects, let me know! Thanks

Ok. I’ve decided we are rebuilding from the ground up. Dropping the voltron theme and going full into wheels and discard. Couple new cards have made this feel more viable and i think it is the better way to go.
