Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a Jeskai artifact combo-control list that happens to wear Sakashima of a Thousand Faces and Akiri, Line-Slinger as partners - the actual engine lives in the 99. You flood the board with artifacts, chain copy effects, and assemble compact loops around Emry, Lurker of the Loch, Grinding Station, Krark-Clan Ironworks, Saheeli, the Sun's Brilliance, and Intruder Alarm. Sakashima of a Thousand Faces clones the best creature you control (usually Urza, Lord High Artificer, Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain, or Emry, Lurker of the Loch) and turns off the legend rule so both copies stay. Akiri, Line-Slinger is a backup Voltron clock that scales with every artifact and closes once Krang, Utrom Warlord hands the team flying, trample, haste, and indestructible. Primary wins are mill loops and hasty copy-combat; secondary wins are a hexproof-indestructible fortress with Padeem, Consul of Innovation plus Darksteel Forge, or Platinum Angel sitting behind that same shield.
