No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Basic premise is to out life gain, and out damage, with lots of card draw. I came up with on the spot, can definitely be made better. Let me know what I should take out or put in.

Deck discussion for Artifact life gain

Looks like a fun deck! I would drop some of the basic mana and add the blue and white artifact lands from mirrodin.

Hi! I agree with leste1mr. If you don't want to keep it modern (because it is banned in modern), I would add 4x seat of the synod and 4x ancient den. If so, I'd replace Glacial fortress by Glimmervoid. The deck would benefit a lot from the costly mox opal.

couple ideas

I'm unsure about 2 things, the speed of the deck and the limited life gain.

I'm afraid of the one with the machine - archive - mycosynth golem combo. Playing your cards if you draw 22 cards will rely really much on having a mycosynth out. I'd put 4x of them then. Otherwise, you will rely on your 2x elixir to avoid being decked out. Anything that destroy one of them might leave you dead sooner. I don't know, I'd either lower the number of One with the machine or replace them with thoughtcast.

In search of speed, I'd switch the lantern for thran dynamo. You don't have that much use for the color of mana since your angel cost 8 (I'm not sure you will gain that much speed from the golem).
I don't get the use of the lattice. You don't really need your opponent to have artifacts. It will much likely help them cast all their stuff with any mana. If you wanna life gain with the lattice, you should use golem heart or leonin elder. Golem heart should be used anyway in the deck as a real uncostly good artifact lifegain.
Also, myr incubator seems like a bad idea along with elixir of immortality, as it removes your artifacts from the game.
Could probably replace them with cloud key or etherium sculptor or foundry inspector or anything that will help you cast artifacts sooner.
If the incubator was a sort of wild card, I'd replace them with Metalwork colossus or broodstar or frogmite.

I mean, if we're unconcerned with legality, 4x Sol Ring.

Since the artifact lands are non-basic...you can only have 4.
