So looking over the metalcraft cards i was surprised to see such cool interactions. So just for fun i decided to make 2 low difficulty metalcraft oriented decks for learning purposes.
wasn't sure if it is better to get mask of memory instead of Infiltration Lens, but then if u think about it it is a win win situation. Was pretty unsatisfied with the mana myrs. A turn of early ramp is all great but the deck feels like it needs a good ramp target. I decided to add in more aggressive myrs. Also Seat of the synod got a bit expensive so i will only include Tree of Talesand i am trying to keep the decks cost down since it is a learn to play deck. If u have any ideas about what to ramp up with i will make a separate deck list including ramp and a ramp up and a few ramp up goals. All i can think of is Steel Hellkite and i do want to keep it in flavor so it has to support artifacts/metalcraft or at least provide another win condition that sticks somewhat to flavor .
Also i am thinking about putting together a Blue-Red or Green-Red Deck list soon.
Well, you can Metalworker for some insane mana ramp, though he can be on the pricey side, at 11 bucks a pop. Look into some 0CC artifacts like Ornithopterand cheap, effective ones like Vault Skirge and maybe Signal Pest.
Sharding Sphinx (SCG mint $0.49) would be pretty good. No metalcraft with it, but it will definitely support metalcraft. Etched Champion Expensive (SCG mint $7.99) But definitely a great card for any metalcraft deck. So if you finish this and decide you like it/want to improve it it's a card that you should look at. Faerie Mechanist has a strong ETB effect for artifact search. (SCG mint $0.15) Myr Servitor (SCG mint $0.99) Great for keeping metalcraft up. Myr Retriever (SCG mint $0.49) Graveyard recursion for your artifacts. Myr Superion (SCG mint $0.99) Since you're running mana ramp myrs he'd be a great addition. Primal Clay (SCG mint $0.25) Versatility makes it a good card. Stoic Rebuttal (SCG mint $0.25) can never go wrong with counterspell.
