Deck overview

This is a high-powered Dimir artifact combo deck helmed by Golbez, Crystal Collector. The plan floods the board with cheap artifacts and token producers, then converts that density into infinite mana, infinite turns, or storm kills. Golbez, Crystal Collector provides continuous surveil selection off every artifact ETB and, once you hit four-plus artifacts, recursively returns creatures from the graveyard-turning eight-plus artifacts into a life-drain finisher equal to the returned creature's power. Primary wins route through Time Sieve extra-turn loops, Isochron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal infinite mana into Walking Ballista or Aetherflux Reservoir, and Bolas's Citadel top-deck storms. Secondary lines include Arcum Dagsson tutoring any noncreature artifact, Emry, Lurker of the Loch recursion, and Tezzeret, Master of the Bridge affinity drains. The deck is tutor-dense, low-curve, and relentlessly proactive.
