Great deck. It just sort of evolved over a few months. Plenty of fun combos and different ways to win instead of just a few tricks. I just slipped a few Eldritch Moon goodies in from a great pre-release. Some notable combos are Deadeye Navigator with Scourge of Fleets, Icefall Regent, Archaeomancer,Mulldrifter, and Myr Battlesphere. Use clues or other artifacts and Kuldotha Forgemaster to dig out Darksteel Forge or any other artifact you need. A very effective combat trick is digging out Stuffy Doll or Colossus of Akros during combat to block a huge creature thusly dealing the damage right back to the opponent or having a possible 20/20 next turn. If you nab creatures with Roil Elemental, you can throw them in Synod Sanctum to control them even after Roil Elemental has left the battlefield (I will replace Synod Sanctum with a Conjurors Closet when I get one). Also note that if you target an opponents creature that you control with Proteus Staff then it will send the creature to the bottom of their library but you will get the new one from your deck.

Some artifacts like Tormod's Crypt may seem like situational cards that could be dead weight in some games are still good because of Kuldotha Forgemaster. Trading Post is one of the best cards in the deck for obvious reasons. It's not unusual to have Trading Post out and repeat Spine of Ish Sah several times a turn, especially with Voltaic Key out. The more you play the deck the more these interactions present themselves.

If you get Vedalken Orrery out it's a whole new level of awesome. Chalice of Life   is a cool card but there isn't consistent enough life gain to flip it usually so suggestions on life gain in blue or a replacement is welcomed. Like I said, many fun times. Other Jalira decks I've seen go for huge beaters but I wanted something that played differently each game. Let me know what YOU think, and thanks for reading.
