Deck overview

This Izzet deck is an artifact combo powerhouse commanded by Iron Man, Titan of Innovation. While Iron Man acts as a repeatable, haste-enabled Birthing Pod for noncreature artifacts on attack, the 99 is a dedicated artifact storm engine capable of winning independently. The deck accelerates through dense 0–2 CMC mana rocks and cost reducers like Etherium Sculptor and Enthusiastic Mechanaut. Its primary win condition leverages Mystic Forge and Sensei's Divining Top alongside a cost reducer to draw the entire library, building storm to eliminate the table with Aetherflux Reservoir, Brain Freeze, or Thassa's Oracle. Compact backup combos include Isochron Scepter with Dramatic Reversal, Basalt Monolith with Rings of Brighthearth, and Underworld Breach loops. The list also incorporates a hard lock via Karn, the Great Creator and Mycosynth Lattice. Backed by format-ceiling interaction and robust recursion, the deck routinely presents protected win attempts on Turn 4.
