Win via Aetherflux reservoir utilizing artifact based toolset through a variety of options, these options include bouncing sacrifice based artifacts via Noctis' artifact reanimation effect eventually storming off to a profit of lifegain (minimum life required needed to begin process is 7). The main pieces to encourage a Noctis based storm include solemnity, hex parasite, and as a last resort power conduit to remove the finality counters. Alternatively vexing bauble can be used to counter 0 cost/reduced to 0 cost artifacts which puts them back into the graveyard before finality counters can apply due to not entering the battlefield, but still builds storm/aetherflux reservoir life gain count due to cast attempts.\n\n1B. As above from point 1A with the difference of utilizing pieces like hullbreaker horror or tidespout tyrant to bounce cheap artifacts repeatedly storming through hand instead of graveyard, no minimum life count required.

This tool will allow you to regain the 50 life paid for aetherflux as well as the 50 damage dealt to opposing player, bringing life total to 101+ allowing you to deal with the remaining 2 players.

Both cards rely on the theme of storming/bouncing cards repeatedly to either untap and activate grinding station or trigger altar of the brood. Altar of the brood exists as an alternative workaround to niche stax pieces such as null rod or collector ouphe removing the ability to activate artifact abilities since this altar of the brood triggered instead.\n\n3. Further elaborating on mill based win cons, the deck also includes brain freeze as a non artifact/off-field alternative to artifact/on-field disabling stax pieces, refer to notes above on upping storm counts through recursion or bouncing.
