Deck Description

I always loved Esper and Artifacts, so i came up with a deck idea i had a long time. I wanted to make it as cheap as possible, unfortunatly Aether Vial is quite pricey. I already had 2, so feel free to replace it with maybe 2 Executioners Capsule.

This is only a casual deck, for playing with friends, nothing to fancy.

How to Play

The goal of this deck is to look for your artifacts with Sphinx Summoner and/or Ponder and play them with Master Transmuter (MT). Etherium Sculptor, Vedalken Engineer and Aether Vial are there for more speed. Prophetic Prism fixes early mana problems. Use Skeleton Shard to get your otherwise lost artifacts back to your hand, or regenerate them with Metallurgeon before they die. With Esper Charm and Thoughtcast, you can get card advantage, using the Charm to get rid of Enchantments is also an option. 4 Arcane Sanctums should be enough to fix your mana problems, but you can search for basic lands with Esper Panorama if needed.

Glassdust Hulk becomes unblockable nearly every turn, which makes him a good finisher.
Master of Etherium gets quite big in this deck, he also supports your other artifact creatures.
Argent Sphinx is another evasive biggy that can save himself.

Useful Combos:

Blink your Prophetic Prism with the Master Transmuter to get additional card draws, blinking your Sphinx Summoner lets you search for any artifact creature. You can also blink any artifact to save it from removal.
