Deck overview

This deck is an Esper artifact midrange strategy centered on Noctis, Prince of Lucis. It combines Equipment, Vehicles, and Job Select cards to build a wide and tall battlefield presence. Early turns focus on establishing mana rocks like Arcane Signet and Talisman of Progress, followed by deploying Noctis to grant lifelink and allow casting artifacts directly from the graveyard. Midgame lines assemble powerful beaters such as Bronze Guardian, Armory Automaton, and Cid, Timeless Artificer, boosted by high-stat Equipment like Machinist's Arsenal and Wrecking Ball Arm. Defensive layers including Conqueror's Flail and Paladin Danse, Steel Maverick protect the board while single-target removal keeps opposing threats in check. The deck closes games through sustained combat damage over several rotations, using graveyard recursion to outlast removal.
