Breya Etherium Shaper Savant

Commander / EDH

Chaere


Alright, so the idea is to get infinite mana using various means and use Breya to just blow everyone up. There are a few other situational combos that can be used as well, and I will outline them below.

There are quite a few ways to get infinite mana, some colored, some colorless, and there are different things you can do with each type.

DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO BELOW. I'M REWORKING THIS DECK.

Isochron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal + Gilded Lotus / Sol Ring + Darksteel Ingot
  • Just exile Dramatic Reversal under the scepter, tap the Lotus, and start going to town. Alternatively do the same thing with Sol Ring to pay the scepter cost and Darksteel Ingot as the colored mana source.

Isochron Scepter + Paradox Engine + Gilded Lotus / Sol Ring + Darksteel Ingot

  • Basically the same as above, as long as you have something exiled under the scepter that you can cast, you get the same results.

Worldgorger Dragon + Animate Dead

  • This one looks a little harder than it is. You just have to have good old George in your graveyard and cast Animate Dead targeting him. Tap out all your mana with Animate Dead on the stack, George comes in, Animate dead leaves, tap all your lands for mana, George comes back, ad infinitum. However, if you have no other creatures in your graveyard for Animate Dead to target and no one has any way to interrupt you, congrats! You just hard locked the game! If Breya, Etherium Shaper is out when you cast Animate Dead, you can sacrificer her to her own ability and let her hit the graveyard to break the loop.

Grand Architect + Pili-Pala

-Pretty simple. Have Grand Architect make Pili-Pala blue, start tapping/untapping to your heart's content.

Infinite Artifact Tokens (see below) + Isoschron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal/Paradox Engine + Goblin Welder + Lotus Petal

  • So this technically is a way to convert infinite colorless mana via Ashnod's Altar into infinite colored mana (thus enabling a win with Breya), but the only situation I can think of in which you'd use this is if you didn't have enough mana to bring Breya out of the command zone. What you do is you target one of the tokens with Goblin Welder and Lotus Petal in the graveyard, switch them, sac the Lotus Petal for one mana of any color, sac another token to Ashnod's Altar, use the to pay for Isochron Scepter's ability, untap the Welder, and so on. However, if you can do this, there are probably other, easier ways you can win.
Basalt Monolith + Rings of Brighthearth +
  • Classic infinite mana combo. Tap Basalt Monolith, pay the to untap it, copy the untap with Rings of Brighthearth + , tap the Monolith again, untap it with the copied untap, on and on forever.

Isochron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal + Basalt Monolith/Mana Vault

  • Just exile Dramatic Reversal under the scepter, tap the 'lith/vault, and start going to town.

Isochron Scepter + Paradox Engine + Basalt Monolith/Mana Vault

  • Basically the same as above, as long as you have something exiled under the scepter that you can cast, you get the same results.

Ashnod's Altar + Nim Deathmantle + Breya, Etherium Shaper/Myr Battlesphere/Wurmcoil Engine

  • This one is a little bit different than the others, as it also nets you infinite Thopter or Myr tokens. In either case, sac Breya/Battlesphere/Wurmcoil plus one of their tokens to the Altar, then take the you just generated and pay for the Deathmantle. Do this infinitely, then you can sac all the generated tokens to the Altar for infinite colorless mana. As a bonus, if you did this with Breya, you could just win with her ability and the infinite thopters/mana.
Breya, Etherium Shaper
  • Breya is one of our primary win conditions. Essentially, if you can find a way to make infinite colored mana or infinite artifact tokens/colorless mana, you win. There are many ways to achieve that in this deck, most of them listed above.

Bitter Ordeal

  • This one is not one many people would expect in an artifact deck, but, here we are. Gravestorm is a super broken mechanic, and I can see why they only ever put it on one card in the entire history of Magic. So, there are several ways you can use this, but the primary one would be to sacrifice infinite artifact tokens to either Ashnod's Altar or Kuldotha Forgemaster. Not many people realize this, but tokens DO go to the graveyard before they are exiled as a state-based action. Using this, we can drive our Gravestorm count super high. However, there is one other way we can trigger this infinitely: Saheeli Rai. If you make her an artifact with either Liquimetal Coating or Mycosynth Lattice, we can create infinite Saheeli tokens using her -2 ability on herself (this is essentially a variant of the "Copycat" technique from Kaladesh standard). Each token goes to the graveyard according to the Planeswalker Uniqueness rule, so that also ups our Gravestorm count.

Disciple of the Vault

Blightsteel Colossus

  • Ah yes, the hated one man win con. He's got infect. He's got 11 power. He's got trample. He's indestructable. Honestly, if you get to the point where you have to use him, you're in bad shape, but you're not totally screwed.
