Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a Mono-Blue artifact-proliferate value deck helmed by Jin-Gitaxias // The Great Synthesis. The primary game plan is to ramp into Jin-Gitaxias, use his front-face card-drawing ability to stock a seven-card hand, transform him into the The Great Synthesis saga, and then win via either the saga's free-cast chapter (Chapter III) or by building an overwhelming board of huge Station-powered spacecraft and incremental Psychosis Crawler pings. The proliferate sub-theme supercharges charge counters on spacecraft, Powersome tokens, and +1/+1 counters, while a heavy artifact base (nearly half the nonland deck) generates synergy with Sai, Master Thopterist and Vedalken Archmage. The deck is slow and lacks fast combos, relying on incremental advantage and a resilient commander to grind out the late game.
