Jeskai Affinity is a very flexible deck that can win through a number of options, such as cheap creatures that generate value in the deck, like Thraben Inspector or Kor Skyfisher, cheating on mana with the Affinity Mechanic, or assembling a massive Atog by sacrificing a critical mass of Artifacts and either attacking or using Fling for lethal damage. Artifact lands allow the deck have a very fast clock by reducing the costs of Affinity spells like Myr Enforcer and Thoughtcast while Prophetic Prism fixes your mana while drawing cards.

Sideboard Strategy

Red Elemental Blast and Blue Elemental Blast should be brought in against the relevant colors. Fiery Cannonade and Krark-Clan Shaman against go-wide strategies such as Goblins, Stompy and Elves. Dispel and Negate come in if you expect to be fighting over key spells on the stack. Reaping the Graves helps stabilize after a slew of removal spells thanks to it having Storm. Shenanigans and Ancient Grudge can be brought in as artifact hate in other Affinity matchups or in for Tron to hit mana fixing. Leave No Trace as a one of offers an out to Bogles if drawn
