Deck Description

Commander: Arcum Dagsson
Mono-Blue Artifact EDH

Update 10/22: Have had problems with Arcum being repeatedly exiled/destroyed.
+Neurok Stealthsuit (Protect Arcum, Save the world)
+Fabricate
+Lifeline (Allows for absolutely filthy graveyard antics if Myr Turbine is destroyed/exiled)
+Shape Anew
+Rite of Replication (In case of fire, break glass and clone Sphinxes)
+Tormod's Crypt (Kill recursion decks/follow-up to Nevinyrral's Disk)

-Argivian Restoration
-Cryptoplasm (Too slow/ never was completely necessary. May put back in later)
-Grand Architect (Useless without Pili-Pala combo)
-Myr Battlesphere (Consistently won before I ever had enough to play this.)
-Sharding Sphinx (Never attacking unless I'm about to win)
-Skullclamp (May put this in again later, but just never needed it)

How to Play

The sacs:
Ornithopter, Signal Pest, Phyrexian Revoker, Myr Retriever, Steel Overseer

--Strategy 1:--
Play any one of the low-CMC Artifact creatures.
Get Arcum Dagsson out then:
-Sac your creature to Arcum for a Myr Turbine/Summoning Station. Having unlimited Artifact Creatures is invaluable.

-Grab Mycosynth Lattice and Unwinding Clock, Nevinyrral's Disk, then Darksteel Forge. Congrats, you have infinite one-sided board wipes. You've won.


-Myr Incubator - Try to be a little discerning with this. Exile enough artifacts so that you can swing for game next turn, but not so many that if they have a Cyclonic Rift/Bane of Progress in hand, you haven't completely neutered your deck for them.
Keep Blightsteel, Wurmcoil, Soul Foundry, Kuldotha Forgemaster, Isochron Scepter, and any other Artifacts you think you can still use.
-Coat of Arms to make your Myr big beasties

Minimum cards:
Turbine->Incubator->Coat of Arms

------------------------
The deck is a lot of fun to play a few times, but gets repetitive.
