Commander: Ultron, Artificial Malevolence

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This colorless artifact deck, helmed by Ultron, Artificial Malevolence, aims to generate overwhelming value by copying nontoken artifacts that enter the battlefield. The commander's ability turns every artifact you cast into a potential token copy (paying {2} per trigger), creating a wide board of 2/2 Robot Villain creatures or copying utility artifacts. The deck leans heavily on mana acceleration (Urzatron, mana rocks) and cost reducers to deploy high-CMC threats like Krang, Utrom Warlord and Triplicate Titan. Win conditions include combat damage from a swarm of artifact creatures, Walking Ballista as a mana sink, and the value engines of Ugin, Eye of the Storms and Portal to Phyrexia. The deck is resilient through recursion (Scrap Trawler, Myr Retriever) and indestructible effects (Darksteel Forge), but its heavy artifact reliance makes it vulnerable to mass artifact hate.
