(Text from prev Breya deck)

Get value from artifacts and abuse ETB/death triggers. Feed Breya's ability with artifact tokens to manage threats and gain life early.

Without Krark-clan Ironworks or Ashnod's Alter enabling infinite mana/tokens, it's tough to kill opponents with Breya's ability outside specific situations. The ideal board has Mana Vault and Salvaging Station allowing a limited combo and explosive bursts of damage. It can close a game, but probably won't kill the table if everyone has 20+ health.

The various costs of killing with Breya's Bolt: Without a sac loop involving Salvaging Station, every 10 mana and 10 artifacts fed to her results in 15 damage. With it, if you use an artifact land as a sac target you get a simple half rate for both costs, so 5 mana, 5 artifacts for 15 damage since Salvaging station lets you recur the land every loop. While you must still sac creatures, a sac target like Sol Ring or Mana Vault will let you ignore the mana cost entirely. This is the best case, and if you've managed to build up a decent amount of Myr and Thopter tokens you can do solid amounts of damage.

Main finishers: Purphuros, Cranial Plating, Myr Battlesphere, Wurmcoil Engine

These are good damage sources that synergize with the wide strategy and ETB trigger abuse. Flicker effects or reanimation like Goblin Welder or Daretti let you get multiple Purphuros triggers off Breya, build up tokens for Myr Battlesphere or make artifacts for Cranial Plating. Enhancers like Panharmonicon or Annointed Procession catalyze the process. Wurmcoil Engine doesn't work with flicker, but it's excellent with Breya and with recursion. Lifeline is especially fun with Wurmcoil engine as a sacrifice target.

In the future, the deck might feature more competitive choices like Deadeye Navigator, and Brago, but it feels balanced for the playgroup I'm in. It still has some teeth, and it's a ton of fun to pilot if you like going to artifact sac-untap-sac-this-tap-that-bonanza-town, spewing thopters all over the place, or making everything on everyone's board immune to being killed (Lifeline is just a fun card in general).
