Thopter Aggro Destruction

Modern*

Krzysz


This is a super fast aggro deck that quickly pushes out Thopter Tokens, Ornithopters, and Memnites then pumps them up with cards like Ensoul Artifact, Cranial Plating and Chief of the Foundry.

Thopter Engineer is crucial to this deck because it gives our artifacts haste which can result in some low-cost high-impact plays. With it on the field we can play a Ornithopter + Ensoul Artifact to have a flying 5/5 and the flying 1/1 generated by the engineer swinging for 6 costing only 1U. For an additional 1R after combat we can Shrapnel Blast and sac a thopter to deal 11 in one turn which is hopefully enough do lethal damage and win. If at the start of the game your hand consists of a 0 cmc creature, Ensoul Artifact, and two lands, you're pretty much guaranteed the game by turn 4 or 5 if they can't answer the onslaught.

Esperzoa + Alchemist's Vial to have a "draw for 2" each upkeep, or one of the 0 cmc creatures. Esperzoa + Thopter Engineer is also a good secondary source of getting quick, big, flying hits in if you don't have the cards for Ensoul/Orni or Mem.

Day's Undoing works well with the low cmc costs in this deck.
