The Machine | Mono Blue Artifacts | OTJ Standard Ranked Bo1 | MTG Arena

Published 2024-07-01
Greetings and Welcome my friends! You have come over to the Shark Side!

This is The Machine, a Mono Blue Artifacts deck that focuses on making tokens and wins with a squad of robot men. As a Mono Blue deck we are without pin point removals but we have giant robots to overcome our inability to snipe enemy men. We have some counter spells to help preserve our board.

Fun Meter Rating: 8. This is a whopper. It's very powerful.

Win Rate: 57%. We do rather well in most games.

Strong: We have a solid game plan against the majority of decks.

Weak: We don't auto lose to Flying men, but we struggle against them if they have removals for our robots. The Shuffler, the Shuffler kills us.

Crafting Guide for The Machine:
Three Steps Ahead is a critical card for the deck. You will want some of these. Craft at least 3.
Treasure Map is an enabler. It's rather helpful but you can easily sub in something else. Craft at your discretion.
Sword of Once and Future is not a critical element. In fact we might rotate it out. Do no Craft.
The Synthesizer is the backbone of the deck. Craft at least 3.
Worldwalker Helm gives us a huge edge. Craft at least 2.
The Spider has proven to be very useful as an early blocker that also gives us a touch of ramp. Craft at least 3.
The Mightstone is ramp, removal or draw that we can then copy later if needed. Craft at least 2.
Chimil is utility. It works great in the deck but it is not essential. Craft at your discretion.
The Leveler is spot removal. Although it has yet to prove itself invaluable in the deck. Craft at your discretion.
Hulking Metamorph is our clone tool to copy anything from a Synthesizer to a Portal. Craft at least 3.
The Portal is a backbreaker. It clears out blockers and then gets us back fallen men. Craft all 2.

Stay Safe out there!
Shark 'Em All!
