Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a Mardu (Red/White/Black) artifact-Voltron deck built to cast and abuse **Megatron, Tyrant** as a repeatable artifact tutor, combat enabler, and sacrificial payoff all in one card. The deck aggressively ramps with artifact rocks, drops Megatron a full turn ahead of curve, then uses his attack trigger to double up on Equipment/artifact ETB effects while simultaneously denying opponents their combat step. It hides its explosive speed behind protection instants and a compact, recursion-y graveyard, letting it recover from wipes better than most artifact decks. The core plan is to use **Megatron's attack trigger** to sacrifice the freshly-tutored artifact for damage/first strike, and to use the back face to convert Megatron into a continuous mana source and "that turn's extra combat" mode. There are multiple pathways to victory: "Voltron" commander damage, "Aetherflux" raw lifegain/artifacts, or "Superion" hasted double-strike mega-damage. The deck is more linear than pure infi-artifacts, but has enough redundancy across tutors and recursion to feel inevitability from a dedicated hand.
