Sydri EDH deck, based on the Eternal Bargain C13 precon.

Sydri allows us to go on the beatdown with mana rocks, ramping into large artifacts, and swinging with them. She also also turns things like Staff of Nin and Caltrops into Murders-On-A-Stick.

---

Cards to add soon:

• Blightsteel Colossus
• Deadeye Navigator
• Maze of Ith
• Caltrops
• Planar Portal
• Basalt Monolith
• Eldrazi?
• Entomb?
• Buried Alive?
• Exhume?
• Reanimate?

---

Combos so far:

Gilded Lotus + Sydri, Galvanic Genius + Voltaic Construct - Create infinite colored mana. Make the lotus a creature, tap for 3 mana. Untap with Construct for 2. Rinse and repeat.
Use with:

• Keening Stone to mill the table.
• Death Grasp
• Jayemdae Tome - Draws "infinite" cards.
• Planar Portal - Tutors as many cards as you need (inclusion TBD)

Basalt Monolith + Training Grounds , or Basalt Monolith + Voltaic Construct - Makes infinite colorless mana, once you make the Monolith a creature with Sydri.

Darksteel Forge + Nevinyrral's Disk - Absolutely awful. Note that Phyrexian Metamorph copying Sydri, Galvanic Genius gives you an indestructible general, surviving the Disk.

Serra Avatar + Wall of Reverence - Double your life total on your end step.

---

Nephalia Smuggler makes tons of things broken. It's no Deadeye Navigator - that's a little mean.

Myr Battlesphere + Nephalia Smuggler - Make Myrs. Attack.

Filigree Angel + Nephalia Smuggler - Often gains you a boatload of life, fast.

Nephalia Smuggler + Phyrexian Metamorph - Reccuring Clone effect, not bad. More utility than anything.

Faerie Mechanist + Nephalia Smuggler - Gets artifacts. Inefficient, will be replaced soon.
