Deck Description

My take on the U/R Art decks going around. Love the idea but wanna see how some of the new Khans cards can beef it up. Jeskai Ascendancy puts a whole new spin in things.

How to Play

Well, we have a lot of the existing combos here. Ensoul Artifact working wonders with Darksteel Citadel and Ornithopter. Shrapnel Blast sacking Scuttling Doom Engine for 11 damage to the face with the help of Generator Servant to make it a mid-game possibility. Chief engineer doesn't actually do much of anything here, so he's just a one-of.

NEW STUFF: Jeskai Ascendancy makes convoke one seriously powerful effect. Imagine tapping down all your artifact critters for an Obelisk of Urd, and getting them all back to untapped with a huge +3 anthem. Same goes for Stoke The Flames. Tap out for burn and get ridiculous return and little to no drawback.
Narset, Enlightened Master comes in as a one-of to pop off some extra burn spells and card draw, and even some Obelisks.
I couldn't decide on what to throw in for card draw, so I threw in three one-ofs of good card drawers. I'm thinking that Dig Through Time will probably come out on top as long as it isn't a pain to cast.
Tomb of the Spirit Dragon will give you some lame lifegain if you need it.

SIDEBOARD: Tormod's Crypt - I have a hunch we will be seeing some Delve decks pretty soon... T-Crypt will have something to say about that. It also synergizes well with Ascendancy.
Ghostfire Blade - Creatures falling just short of lethal damage before you get canned? Here's a cheap beefer upper. Again, synergizing well with ascendancy.
Soul of New Phyrexia - Cool card, but I can't see myself siding it in very often. Its ability to make things indestructible is pretty awesome but not very necessary.
Phyrexian Revoker - Planeswalkers and utility cards bringing you down? Revoke that shit! Then maybe ensoul it for good measure.
Chief Engineer - Here he is! A couple in the side I felt was necessary is you wanted to bring in the other artifacts that would be nice to have Convoke for, namely the Revoker and the Blade. He also has a descent body, and will look like a threat, absorbing your opponent's removal spells (He's really not that much of a threat.)
Dictate of the Twin Gods - Finding opportunities to flash this in at the end of your opponent's turns? Get that shit in there and Doom Shrapnel your opponent for a whopping 22 damage the next turn.
Jeskai Ascendancy - If this combo maker is really taking you places, throw another in there. You're gonna want it if you're adding those extra engineers.
Deflecting Palm - Who doesn't love this card? If you're opponent is doing some real fuckshit... like trying to Crater's Claw you for the last 6 points of health, get ready to say SWAT TEAM!
