![]() Obviously, building a deck where every creature is either an artifact or produces artifact tokens is a fairly big deck building restriction. If you enjoy the Budget Magic series and the other video content on MTGGoldfish, make sure to subscribe to the MTGGoldfish Youtube Channel to keep up on all the latest and greatest. Let's get to the videos, then I'll talk more about the deck. Once I did that, everything came together, and the deck ended up not only super powerful, but extremely fun to play! I decided to accept the tax and play with Hangarback Walker. Alchemist's Vial was the second best two-drop artifact I could find, which didn't fit the definition of playable. Without Hangarback Walker, UR Thopters is severely lacking in early game plays. Second, I tried to build the deck without Hangarback Walker for the sake of staying on budget, and it simply didn't work. First the three most powerful cards in the deck are four-drops, which can lead to some clunky draws. ![]() In the past, when trying to build UR Thopters I kept running into two problems. It feels wrong that no one is taking advantage of these cards, so we are going to rectify the situation! Pia and Kiran Nalaar, Hangarback Walker and Whirler Rogue). Thopter Spy Network and Ghostfire Blade) and a few good enablers (e.g. This week I figured it out, and I'm ready to unveil UR Thopters!

Bident of thasa is a similar effect with higher possible upside but performs the same in behind and parity quadrant.Kamusta Budget Magic lovers! It's that time again. I hope this helps depict why I will give this card the slot over military intelligence. I value the behind and parity quadrants the most. Parity: if you can't afford to attack this does nothing to help you Trampling opponents will be harder to deal with and defense may be too slow but it's there.Īhead: card advantage if you have 2 creatures that can attack (does nothing without 2 creatures) don't have to deal damage to draw cards.ĭeveloping: Can come down early in the game to help pull you ahead. Ghostfire blade lets your thopeters trade with real creatures and help bring you back in the game. Parity: token generation can go wide and give you expendable attackers to force blocks or get card advantage to pull you ahead of parity.īehind: slow defense but gives one chump block a turn while you dig to answers. Tokens can be used as ensoul targets, cheap Ghostfire equips, and extort fodder for silumgars sorcerer. TSN values assume you will reliably have an artifact, which the ensoul deck really should.Īhead: generate card advantage and increase your clock.ĭeveloping: comes down as your hand is empty and helps fuel back the cards spent.
