---

The main combo is Planar Portal + 14 mana, including blue (Tolarian Academy) + Beacon of Tomorrows . I like it because I love the toolbox-enabling Planar Portal, which can then get the Academy. I just need to ramp up to the Portal with Expedition Map-enabled Urzatron and/or Metalworker.

I also like Nevinyrral's Disk + Darksteel Forge for its sheer evil.

Then there's Metalworker + Staff of Domination (and three artifact cards in hand), and I've had either Karn win games for me, too.

Beyond the ramp and combos there's a little removal to see me through; I especially enjoy All Is Dust, Steel Hellkite, and the ever-handy Staff of Nin. Null Brooch carries its weight well despite being opposed to Metalworker. I sometimes have to use a Disk early on, as well, such as just after I've gotten my lands sorted out (love those Maps) but before I've started emptying my hand.

The rest are odds and ends to round out the toolbox.
