"Where a lesser mind sees junk, I see infinite potential." - Daretti

This deck is your classic non-stax Daretti build, using Daretti's various loyalty abilities to cheat big artifacts onto the battlefield as well as accrue card advantage when combined with various other effects. Some of the most important/powerful cards in the deck include:

Squee, Goblin Nabob & Alhammarret's Archive: Turns Daretti's uptick into card advantage

Darksteel Forge: Makes practically your entire board indestructible, exponentially increasing your longevity & making you hard to deal with outside of Merciless Eviction-style effects

Mycosynth Lattice: Turning all permanents into artifacts and all cards becoming colourless creates all sorts of powerful synergies, for example, with Dockside Extortionist, Throne of Geth or Ugin, the Ineffable

Combos/Synergies:

Gilded Lotus + Kurkesh, Onakke Ancient + Manifold Key : Infinite mana (there are currently no X burn spells to take advantage of it but Comet Storm is a solid contender and the mana can be used with Saheeli's Directive to great effect)

Darksteel Forge + Nevinyrral's Disk : A repeatable board wipe for creatures, enchantments and opponent's artifacts

Hellkite Tyrant + Mycosynth Lattice : Practically an instant win

Darksteel Forge + Platinum Angel : Makes losing pretty difficult

Mycosynth Lattice + Shattering Spree : Turns Shattering Spree into 'R: destroy target permanent' with replicate

IMPORTANT NONBOS TO BE AWARE OF:

All Is Dust + Mycosynth Lattice: Lattice makes everything colourless so All is Dust does nothing

Nevinyrral's Disk + Mycosynth Lattice (without Darksteel Forge): Removes all of everyone's permanents including lands, pretty much resets the board state to square one

Scrap Mastery + Mycosynth Lattice: Similar to Nev's Disk except it returns all artifacts in the graveyards to the battlefield

Those last two nonbos aren't necessarily nonbos depending on your playgroup but mine isn't a fan of MLD so I make sure not to use those effects (or the Mycosynth + an overloaded Vandalblast which does the same thing but one-sided) when playing. Indeed, that is why I took Karn, the Great Creator out of the deck, because I found that he didn't do enough without the Lattice combo

The deck's main win-cons are building up a board of lands and artifacts to fuel a huge Saheeli's Directive, winning through Hellkite Tyrant's alternate win-cons, out-resourcing my opponents and winning through attrition or, failing all those, running the opponents over with big creatures like Wurmcoil Engine, Etali, Primal Storm and Steel Hellkite

Note: the deck does contain some non-optimal cards like Filigree Familiar and Madcap Experiment, but those are kinda pet cards of mine so I don't really want to take them out of the deck
