Blue Artifact Deck: Palladium Blue
3.0
Initially this deck main focus was supposed to be on Blue Artifact Creatures that can Tutor or accelerate other bigger artifacts come into the field with help of draw spells to get extras cards in hand. But during a test were I was testing Wurmcoil Engine I noticed that it worked very well with Master Transmuter + Treasure Mage
combo, so I decided build the deck around this combo and their abilities. I started by checking every single modern Artifact with a converted mana cost of or great, and since I already had all the support I needed in the Draw and Flash mechanics I focused my search in Artifact Creatures. After having decided the cards I wanted, I opened 4 spots in the deck ( more or less spots can be use but during my test this was the number that worked best for me ) where I could alternate those cards in the combo that will give the deck the best chance to win against my opponent(s) deck(s).
The recommend cards for this spots are:
I made this deck to play in Legacy format but decided to make it to also be Modern legal since I wanted play in both formats with it, and to maintain the budget under an average of 300$ I normally keep 2xWurmcoil Engine, 1xScuttling Doom Engine and 1x Soul of New Phyrexia in the main deck and 1xBlightsteel Colossus in the sideboard that is the combo that worked the best for me not going over my budget.
For those who may not like this deck mechanic my recommendation is remove Treasure Mage and the 4 Artifact Creatures and put in their place cards like Vedalken Archmage, Arcanis the Omnipotent or Consecrated Sphinx that will up even more the card draw rate of the deck, but be warned in this state the deck loses a very large part of its damage dealing capabilities so I recommend also putting in it some boosting cards like Akroma's Memorial and Darksteel Forge to give you a better chance to win.
The deck is very stable and produce very good first hands.
Banned and Restricted cards that are on radar for possible future use:

Extraplanar Lens / Mimic Vat / Prototype Portal / Soul Foundry / Tamiyo, the Moon Sage / Tezzeret the Seeker / Vedalken Orrery
