DESCRIPTION
So this is an upgraded version of my Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain deck. Out of all the decks I have built so far on the channel, I would say that this one is probably the most competitive. I rarely pull it out when playing with my playgroup because it can go off too quickly.
Strategy
Get Jhoira out as quickly as possible (turn 2 or 3 is ideal), and then cast a ton of free or reduced cost artifacts. Artifact costs will be reduced by cards like [[Etherium Sculptor]], [[Foundry Inspector]], [[Semblance Anvil]], etc. We are running a ton of mana rocks in this deck to generate a lot of mana very quickly as well.
How do we win?
Storm off with our cantripping artifacts. Make sure you draw into gas with cards like [[Artificer's Assistant]], [[Riddlesmith]], and [[Mana Severance]]. Return artifacts back to your hand to cast them again with [[Displacement Wave]], [[Retract]], and [[Hurkyl's Recall]]. Finish your opponents off with [[Golem Foundry]], [[Aetherflux Reservoir]], or [[Temporal Fissure]].
