I don't buy the first part of your argument, as artifact aggro is all about high density and having something in the GY with Baubles, Trinkets, combat, Ravager seems relatively easy. You make a good point about the delay though, only being relevant late. In the meantime, it has menace which is...

No worries, I don't mind getting feedback (positive or negative) on ideas, otherwise I wouldn't post :D Which card here screams artifact aggro the most Rust Harvester Gingerbrute Bomat Courier Rabbit Battery I'd like one more artifact one drop and these are my favorite candidates. I ranked...

Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle This bird is an archetype all by itself and is a lot of fun. You can go into Blue too Tameshi, Reality Architect Emry, Lurker of the Loch You can build an eggs deck around these Auriok Salvagers Trinket Mage Origin Spellbomb Aether Spellbomb Salvaging Station And...

For me, the toughest part of a GY cube is finding a role for White decks. Recently, I’ve had success with a discard aggro deck, a recursive artifact deck and <= 3 mana reanimation. I’m not running it, but there are some very good combo decks centered around the GY and sacrifice too. I would try...

Haha wtf is this?

Mizzium Mortars? I think it has game in slower midrange and control decks. Might count as burn? I like Miles' mention of Collective Defiance too.

That's a blind side of mine, I didn't really have any combos in mind with it, though I imagine it can grease the wheels of many. In my cube, I think it enhances Enduring Renewal and nothing else. That's a good observation and honestly, I wasn't thinking of this as a tokens card, more of an...

Sorry to double post, but I've had a thought. What if this was the Green artifact producer I was looking for Genesis Chamber Every creature now comes with an artifact. It's a tough balancing act to break the symmetry, but it feels like it has potential in Green to be better than in other...

Can’t argue with that. My thought was I have essentially two Welders by running Engineer also. This gives me enough redundancy to have a Red artifact package. In the same vein, having another powerful artifact token producer in Green gives me redundancy. This means cards like Cranial Plating...

I haven't thought about this cube in a long time, only adding a few cards that seem like obvious hits here and there. However, the cube just hit its 100th follower and I figured I owed it to the people liking the environment to give it another go. The guiding principals haven't changed: 1...

Revisiting Green meets artifacts. The best way I've found for Green to bridge artifacts is by spamming the board with artifact tokens. I already run Tireless Tracker and would like another mono-Green option. Peregrin Took vs Tireless Provisioner I landed on these two as the easiest way to...

No slam dunks this time around, but three cards I am happy to try Bothersome Noisemaker I like the ease of triggering this one. I can imagine scenarios where not being able to go wide is a problem and that’s the biggest downside. I do like it encourages sacrifice to maximize token output...

This is a great card, especially next to Krenko, Baron of Tin-Street. I think you are right though, the rate isn't quite there. Engines I wanted to share one way I've started to think about my engines cards. I try and go through 3 pillars that are important to me, because they line up with my...

I like it too. In my lower power environment I have plenty of Adventure creatures, Abundant Growth or Sarcomancy type cards in addition to lands as you mention. I’d like to squeeze in a few more sagas to really set up a value engine.
