U/G is one of my favorite color combinations so I finally threw together a Lonis, Cryptozoologist. And while it may be helmed by Lonis, it is actually a Academy Manufactor deck.

The goal of the deck is to get mutliple Academy Manufactors out and then create TONS of tokens. The best thing about this is that multiples stack in powers of 3 which is amazing, so if you have X Academy Manufactors out, and you would create a Food/Treasure/Clue token, instead you create 3^X-1 of each instead, totaling 3^X total tokens. Using this you can close out with a Tezzeret the Seeker ultimate or Rise and Shine to turn all tokens you generate into creatures and swing, chain creatures and deck yourself with a Laboratory Maniac or deck everyone else with Blue Sun's Zenith or tap down everyone's creatures with a Junk Winder and swing over the course of a couple turns.

This deck also gets to use a couple bulk cards that can help you get out of tight spots and in amazing ways, mostly through the use of getting :

Junk Winder - So Modern Horizons 2 had the cool blue/green draft archetype of "Tokens Matter". This was one of the pay-off cards of being able to tap stuff down and get in there. In this deck, you generate TONS of tokens and this card actually winds up being pretty good! You get to Fire / Ice a lot of permanents and do your thing for a couple turns, if you get to clone this a couple times, you get lots of defensive power.

Fangren Marauder - This bulk common from Mirrodin Besieged that was super obnoxious in limited is actually one of the best cards in the deck. All of your tokens are artifacts and trigger this ability. You can gain tons of life, and again in multiples this is amazing. Works well with your commander and Treasure the best but yeah, this card is a powerhouse.

Fae Offering - Green likes to play creatures, Blue likes to play other spells, and if you do both, make 3 tokens (9 with Academy Manufactor). This card is weaker than some of the others on the list, and you shouldn't try to do it every turn that you can, but if its out there you can get some incidental value which is great.

Echoing Equation - This card is awesome in this deck. There are so many good targets that you can hit to really get the most of it and get tons of copies of one card for a turn is great. It's also a big beater for 3 on the otherside as Augmenter Pugilist   if you need that or just to play a creature to get a Lonis, Cryptozoologist trigger.

It should also be noted, there is one infinite combo in the deck, and that's if you have Lonis, Cryptozoologist, 2 copies of Academy Manufactor, and a soulbonded Deadeye Navigator (I know, who ever knew Deadeye could make an infinite combo). Basically, every blink you get 3 treasure, 3 clues and 3 food, so this gives you infinite mana, draw and life. Really easy to win at that point.

You could lean more in this direction but I really just want a deck focused on Academy Manufactor and pumping out tons of the artifact evergreen tokens.
