A sort of third prototype version of a Standard Historic deck that I'm trying to put together.

I have no idea how to explain the strategy but here goes:

The deck is full of artifacts and artifact creatures. Most of them either benefit my other artifacts (Chief of the Foundary, Mishra's Self-Replicator, Voltaic Servant), or they speed up the deck via cost reduction or mana ramp (Jhoira's Familiar, Powerstone Shard).

The Antiquities War allows for fixing artifacts into my hand, plus a big swing from all of my artifacts at the end. Phyrexian Scriptures is more or less a slow board wipe that only hurts my opponents. These sagas combo rather well together if timed correctly: Cast The Antiquities War first, then cast Phyrexian Scriptures on the followimg turn. This will allow Scriptures to wipe the board while Antiquities turns all of your artifacts into creatures with a hell of a lot less blockers to worry about!
