Deck overview

This mono-red deck leverages Knuckles the Echidna to convert combat steps into rapid artifact token generation. With innate double strike, trample, and haste, Knuckles creates Treasure tokens on both first strike and normal combat damage steps. The deck compounds this token volume using cards like Academy Manufactor, Stridehangar Automaton, and Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith. As artifact counts swell, the deck turns tokens into card advantage through Professional Face-Breaker and Idol of Oblivion, and converts token creation into table-wide burn via Reckless Fireweaver and Ingenious Artillerist. The endgame culminates on Turn 6 to 7 by either achieving an alternate win condition with Hellkite Tyrant, animating the entire artifact board with Depthshaker Titan, or finishing the table with Brass's Bounty and direct damage triggers.
