Deck overview

This deck is a high-synergy Dimir artifact combo strategy centered on The Cyber-Controller. It leverages efficient mana rocks, cost reducers, and big-mana producers like Metalworker, Urza, Lord High Artificer, and Cabal Coffers to develop a dominant board ahead of curve. The deck's primary win condition uses an infinite colorless mana loop between Basalt Monolith and either Forsaken Monument or Forensic Gadgeteer. Channeling this mana into The Cyber-Controller for an arbitrarily large X mills every opponent's library completely while converting their milled creature cards into an army of face-down Cybermen. If opponents manage to survive the initial casting, they lose on their subsequent draw steps. Backup win conditions include combat overruns with Cyberdrive Awakener animating artifacts into 4/4 flyers, Tezzeret, Master of the Bridge life drains, and card advantage loops powered by Shimmer Dragon and Emry, Lurker of the Loch.
