Deck overview

This is an Esper artifact-tribal value deck helmed by Urza, Chief Artificer. Affinity for artifact creatures makes Urza cheap to deploy, his menace pushes damage through, and his end-step Construct tokens grow with every artifact on the battlefield. The deck floods the board with artifact creatures and tokens - Sai, Master Thopterist, Digsite Engineer, Mechan Assembler, Royal Warden, Stridehangar Automaton - while cost reducers like Etherium Sculptor and Foundry Inspector plus draw engines like Rhystic Study, Esper Sentinel, and Mystic Forge chain artifacts into more artifacts. Wins come through combat: Krang, Utrom Warlord gives the whole board flying, trample, indestructible, and haste; Cyberdrive Awakener turns every artifact into a 4/4 flyer; Bronze Guardian and the Constructs grow enormous. A deep recursion package (Emry, Lurker of the Loch, Sharrum the Hegemon, Scrap Trawler, Academy Ruins) keeps the board coming back. No infinite combos - pure artifact beatdown.
