Deck Description

Attempt number three at this deck. A lot more proliferate has been introduced since my last attempt and I think I've learned a bit in the past few months.

Attempt 1: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=104316
Attempt 2: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=143345

Suggestions and thoughts welcome! Core cards that HAVE to be in the deck:
Darksteel Reactor
Mishra, Artificer Prodigy
Energy Chamber
Power Conduit
Dark Depths

Everything else is fair game and even the quantities of the above cards used are up for alteration. :)

8/17/12 EDITS: -3 Core Prowlers, +3 Shield Spheres. Conduits AND Hex Parasites can pull the counters off of the Spheres and put them to good use, not to mention the fact that the Sphere is an AMAZING early blocker. :O
-Contagion Engine and Shrine of Loyal Legions from the SB, +2 Power Conduit

Also considering making some of my land into artifact lands. They won't interact with Mishra, but Tezz can search them out with his first ability. :) And I don't NEED basic land, really, if I rearrange my non-basics.

9/2/11 EDITS: +2 Dismantle in the SB. -- Or, at least, consider them added because, for some reason, the site isn't letting me. >.<

And, after some thought...
-4 Vedalken Infuser, +3 Coreprowler, +1 Phyrexian Metamorph
-1 Darksteel Reactor, + 1 Phyrexian Metamorph

8/11/11 EDITS: See comment below. Also, the sideboard is in flux and currently padded with combos that could fit main deck.

8/9/11: -2 Pentad Prism, +2 Coretapper
-1 Power Conduit, +1 Contagion Clasp

Deck discussion for Mishra's Reactor - Now Tezzeret Approved!

the prisons prob could come out and maybe the conduit as well as one reactor. a really awsome creature for these decks is core tapper. i think another clasp would be good to be in as well. i would prob also trade out dismantle for something a little more vercitile.

Reactor is the main win condition, that's why I'm running four there, but I agree that the Prisms are on shaky standing. They're mainly in there as a target for charge counters. Conduit I might be willing to reduce to two, but have the ability to steal charge counters from any artifact to boost the reactor is too good to pass up. :)

And actually, the Dismantles are a nasty surprise. >:D Target the Reactor. It cannot be destroyed so you lose neither the Reactor nor the counters on it, BUT the second ability still happens regardless. So, basically, you double the number of counters on your Reactor. :D

I think I'm trying to do too much in here. While the Shrine is AMAZING, it's just a source of food for the Hex Parasites and MAYBE being able to move counters from it to the Reactor. I don't have nearly enough stall or red spells to make it more threatening. SO! I've decided I miss my Magistrate's Scepters. They're going back in. Extra turns > Slowly growing counter battery.

-2 Shrine of Burning Rage, +2 Magistrate's Scepters.

Also, I like Hex Parasite in this deck. I like him a lot.

He would be better if I were running more than one Dark Depths. In casual, I can't guarantee that he'll have a source of fuel outside my own cards PLUS I can only have one Marit Lage out at a time so that benefit is only really good ONCE. However, having artifact creatures is a good thing, So!

-2 Hex Parasite, +2 Coretapper

Adjusting my land as well. I have 8 non-basic red mana sources, I don't need the Mountains.

-2 Mountains, +1 Swamp and +1 Academy Ruins

Not sure I like the Infuser much either, but I'm not sure what to take out for him... Core Prowlers, maybe? It would make me less color dependent and the Prowlers would be targets for both Tezz and Mishra. Hmm...
