Combos

1) Infinite Mana

Our main combo is using Sydri to turn an artifact that can tap for three mana into a creature, then having voltaic construct untap it for only two. This creates infinite mana and there lots of ways to win with this.

Voltaic Construct+Gilded Lotus/Prismatic Geoscope/Basalt Monolith/Everflowing Chalice(3)/Dreamstone Hedron+Staff of Nin(Ping everyone to death) / Thornbite Staff(Ping everyone to death) / Exsanguinate(Every opponent loses infinite life) / Capsize(Put all opponents permanents in their hands)(Needs infinite colored mana) / Blue Sun's Zenith(Target player draws their whole library)

2 )Death Star

If we get above 50 health then we can turn Aetherflux Reservoir into a lifelink creature. Then we can shoot each of our opponents for 50, gaining 50 life back every time. Life gain from sydri, along the inclusion of Oloro, Ageless Ascetic and exsanguinate will help get above 50 life.Sydri, Galvanic Genius + Aetherflux Reservoir

3) Infinite Everything

This is the original artifact combo with thopter foundry. Perfect for a match where Sydri gets locked out.Thopter Foundry + Sword of the Meek + Krark-Clan Ironworks

4) Graveyard

This is the classic sharuum combo that you see a lot of artifact combo decks based around.Sharuum the Hegemon + Sculpting Steel / Phyrexian Metamorph + Disciple of the Vault / Blood Artist

5) Lockdown

Our last resort is to lock the opponent down with 1 of 2 strategies. Darksteel Forge + Nevinyrral's Disk Clears opponents board every turn for 1 mana.card:Sydri, Galvani Genius + Mycosynth Lattice removes a land 1 mana each. This also works slower with Liquimetal Coating

Synergies

Other good combos to look out for.

Sydri, Galvanic Genius + Staff of Nin / Thornbite Staff with deathtouch can ping lots of creatures

Sydri can also turn Darksteel Forge or Spine of Ish Sah into huge creatures

Voltaic Key can untap our mana rocks that tap for 3 mana to produce more.

Sydi + Caltrops can make it so no one can attack.

Mystical Tutor can go get Temporal Mastery so you get a cheap extra turn next turn.

Ichor Wellspring and Mycosynth Wellspring are valuble cards that can block with sydri in he early game.

I hope you liked the deck.
