Artifact (1)


This is my first attempt at a pauper EDH deck.

Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer and Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith synergize very well together, in that Toggo can make artifacts that are relatively easy to sacrifice (paying 2 mana and tapping a creature), which fuel Ich-Tekik and other golems I control. Also funny enough, my other artifact deck is WUB, so now I have each color represented in both of my artifact decks lol.

Toggo

Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith Makes a rock as a landfall trigger, meaning he enjoys my landfall enablers. Because he wont often be large enough to be a good attacker, his taps will mainly be used to chuck my rocks.

About Rocks

Rocks are created from Toggo, and can be equipped to a creature for , and then that creature gains Sacrifice Rock: This creature deals 2 damage to any target.

This damage will be able to kill some creatures, and maybe ping a low player. The Rocks hit the graveyard when they are sacrificed, which gives Ich-Tekik and my golems +1/+1, which is a very nice bonus.

Some creatures also love rocks

Atog Can sacrifice Rocks to buff itself instead of pinging someone, which is very helpful for Ish Tekik

Moss Viper, Sedge Scorpion, Tajuru Blightblade which kills whatever creature they throw a rock at.

Reckless Fireweaver pings each of my opponents for 1 whenever an artifact hits my battlefield, which can add up coming from such an early creature.

Battered Golem can often throw multiple rocks in the same turn since it can untap during my turn.

Kazuul's Toll Collector doesn't have to pay the equip cost for the rocks, which can be helpful.

Krark-Clan Stoker can turn my rocks into mana instead of throwing them

Snake Umbra, while not a creature, can attach to a creature that throws rocks to draw me some cards, as well as give that creature some protection.

Makeshift Munitions is also not a creature, but can dump rocks much easier if counters for golems are needed

Landfall Enablers

Gruul Turf Can bounce another land (or itself) to my hand, which gives me consistent land drops

Evolving Wilds, Terramorphic Expanse, Sakura-Tribe Elder each get a land from the library

Arboreal Grazer, Walking Atlas, Broken Bond all help get more lands onto the battlefield from my hand (great with Gruul Turf)

Crop Rotation, Cleansing Wildfire, & Harrow destroy my own land to get another land from my library

Evolution Charm Doesn't put the land into play, but can do other things if needed

Cultivate, Grow from the Ashes, Kodama's Reach, Rampant Growth all just get me lands

Ich Tekik

Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer Makes this deck want to be somewhat of a golem tribal, as he gives golems +1/+1 counters, and even makes a golem. Sacrificing and destroying artifacts are both helpful to Ich Tekik, so this deck has a lot of ways to do that and get extra value.

Golems

Gingerbrute is an easy golem to play, only costing , and has a very unique form of evasion, which can be deadly if opponents let it get big

Arcbound Bruiser & Arcbound Wanderer both have modular, which means when they die, I can move their counters to another artifact creature

Battered Golem (mentioned previously) is good at throwing rocks because of its untap ability, and for the same reason can also be used in combat when it gets big enough

Bottle Golems already have trample, which is very helpful when they get large, and have the bonus ability that when they die I gain life

Howling Golem is a nice group-hug draw engine

Maelstrom Colossus is a large, hard to cast golem that has cascade. I think the value is worth it

Oxidda Golem & Tangle Golem both can be cast for less than their cmc, which is pretty nice

Rusted Relic will almost always be a 5/5 for

Maul Splicer makes 2 golems, and gives all of my golems trample

Artifacts

Lightning Spear gives trample to a creature, and can also be sacrificed to hit something for 3 (not from the creature)

Wings of Hubris gives flying to a creature, and can be sacrificed to give even better evasion to a creature

Commander's Sphere, Gruul Cluestone, Gruul Locket, & Mind Stone are mana rocks that can be sacrificed later to draw a card

Traveler's Amulet, Wayfarer's Bauble, & Expedition Map can be sacrificed for lands, which is also good for landfall

Welding Jar can be sacrificed to save a golem from being removed.

Myr Retriever can get an artifact back from the graveyard

Treasures

Goldvein Pick gets treasures from combat damage

Unexpected Windfall gives me card advantage and two treasures

Impulsive Pilferer gives treasure when it dies and also has encore

There are also some removal cards that give me treasures

Removal

(other player's artifacts being removed trigger Ich Tekik)

Natural Reclamation destroys an artifact or enchantment and Cascades

Naturalize just destroys an artifact or enchantment

Return to Nature also has some graveyard hate

Smashing Success gives me a treasure which is very nice

Titanic Brawl will often cost only and is quite good creature removal

+1/+1 counters

Pridemalkin, Duskshell Crawler, Crowned Ceratok all give creatures with a counter trample

Longshot Squad gives all creatures with a counter reach

Cards to be taken out

n/a

Cards to be put in

Lotus Petal is a great artifact that can get free mana and trigger Ish-Tekik
