The Antiquities Improv!

Standard Artifact Storm UR (Izzet)

dhearne04


Sideboard


First off, I LOVE this deck! When I started to build it, I wanted to make a deck with the most fun interaction I could fit into a standard deck. I couldn’t really find out how to do that in one deck, so I made 2(in 1)! The two modes are Storm(sort of) and semi-midrange. However the basis of both modes is this: Cast cheap artifacts (Ornithopter, Renegade Map, or other made cheaper with Foundry Inspector), and use them to cast a bunch of other spells(Saheeli Rai, Padeem, Consul of Innovation, Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain, and Karn, Scion of Urza) with Inspiring Statuary.

Aetherflux Resevoir

The Storm deck wins with Aetherflux resevoir , Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain, and 1 or more Foundry Inspectors. Basically, cast cheap artifacts(hopefully for ), draw off of Jhoira, cast more cheap artifacts, and all the while gain life with the resevoir. After you have more than 50 life, ANNIHILATE THEM! Btw, Paridoxical Outcome is way better in this deck.

For this mode, you’ll want to side in the extra Paridoxical Outcome, the Jhoiras, and the reservoirs

The Antiquities War

The other mode, the ehh-midrange, has the main win-con of The Antiquities War. Just play all the cheap artifacts you can(the more Ornithopters, the better), then Alpha Strike. In this mode, only play Jhoira if you’re ABSOLUTLY sure you can get value the turn you play her or the next, as Padeem, Consul of Innovation is by far the best turn 4 play. Usually, you want to play the saga on turn 5.

You’ll want to side in the 2 Karns, as his constructs are BONKERS. You’ll also want to bring in the 4th saga, as well as the Servo Schematics
