Cards naturally move between your hand, battlefield, graveyard, and library, allowing almost every draw step to contribute toward multiple future turns.\n\nUnlike many artifact decks that try to assemble one explosive combo, this deck plays a long game. Every artifact, tutor, recursion piece, or discard outlet increases the value of the others until the entire deck begins functioning as a self-sustaining machine.\n\n[[Dr. Eggman]] is the catalyst that pressures opponents into making increasingly uncomfortable choices while the rest of the deck quietly accumulates overwhelming value.\n\nCore Engines"},{"attributes":{"header":1},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"The Weatherlight Engine"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"[[Weatherlight]] is one of the deck's strongest sources of card selection.\nAttacking each turn lets you continually sculpt future draws while naturally finding legendary permanents, historic spells, recursion pieces, and additional engines.

Not only are you drawing 1 regardless of the outcome, but if an opponent discards, you get card advantage then too.

That's when you'll catch someone slipping up and they will let you cheat in that [[Myr Battlesphere]] so [[Ultron, Artificial Malevolence]] can create a token copy of it, making 8 Myr tokens. \n\nThe reveal itself becomes part of the game.\n"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Late Game"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Eventually the table reaches a point where every option feels wrong.\nDiscarding protects them from an immediate threat but slowly empties their hand.
