Deck overview

This deck is an Azorius artifact token strategy commanded by Belisarius Cawl. It focuses on assembling a dense network of cheap artifact permanents and token generators to fuel Cawl's dual abilities: producing vigilant 2/2 Astartes tokens and digging deep into the library for key artifacts. The deck accelerates through mana rocks and cost reducers before flooding the board with Thopters, Gnomes, and Astartes. It transitions into a lethal threat by animating its artifact board with Cyberdrive Awakener, buffing the team with Eldrazi Monument, or executing an infinite token loop using Intruder Alarm. Asymmetric sweepers like Organic Extinction and Hour of Reckoning clear opposing creatures while leaving your board intact. Strong defensive cards like Vexilus Praetor and Bronze Guardian shield your key permanents as you assemble a winning attack.
