Deck overview

This deck is a Jeskai artifact token aggro strategy led by Vraska, Soul of Stone, built around an army of 14 copies of Cid, Timeless Artificer. Vraska creates 1/1 Sculpture Treasure artifact creature tokens with vigilance whenever you cast noncreature spells. As you cycle or cast multiple Cids, every artifact creature gains cumulative +1/+1 buffs for every Artificer on your battlefield and in your graveyard. Because cycling Cids cannot be countered by normal spell removal and permanently boosts your team from the graveyard, your board scales rapidly. Efficient noncreature interaction like Swords to Plowshares, Dovin's Veto, and Organic Extinction double as offensive token generators. Backup token producers such as Simulacrum Synthesizer, Sai, Master Thopterist, and Illustrious Wanderglyph ensure heavy pressure even without the commander, leading to wide combat swings that close games around Turn 7.
