Deck overview

This is a mono-white artifact combo deck helmed by Gandalf the White, leveraging his flash enabler and doubled ETB/LTB triggers on artifacts and legendaries to turbocharge recursion loops and value engines. The primary plan assembles efficient artifact sacrifice loops through Krark-Clan Ironworks, Ashnod's Altar, Scrap Trawler, and retrievers (Myr Retriever, Junk Diver, Workshop Assistant), converting them into infinite mana, storm counts, or direct damage via Walking Ballista, Blasting Station, or Aetherflux Reservoir. Secondary lines include Heliod, Sun-Crowned + Walking Ballista and Mystic Forge + Sensei's Divining Top dig sequences. Oswald Fiddlebender and dense cost reduction (Foundry Inspector, Cloud Key, Semblance Anvil) glue the package together. The deck wins through layered infinite combos rather than combat, with Gandalf acting as a powerful trigger multiplier and flash enabler rather than a mandatory combo piece.
