You could be a Modern player for all I know. *shrug*

I play almost exclusively Commander. My main deck is Braids, Conjurer Adept. My secondaries are a Ruric Thar burn deck and an Edgar Markov vampire swarm deck.
I used to run a Zegana +1/+1 counter Voltron deck, and a null-white deck with Kydele and Vial Smasher. The strategy of the latter is to generate a ton of mana with Kydele and combo win with a massive burn spell like Comet Storm. I took them both apart recently though to make a Nekusar burn deck and a UG "big mana" deck with Kydele and Thrasios, where I try to draw my whole deck and win using Laboratory Maniac (he turns milling yourself out into a win condition).
And I'm also starting to put together a Zndrsplt/Okaun coin flip deck. I have a problem.

I was considering Zndrsplt and Okaun but too many of the coin flip cards also have a good chance to hurt you and it needs good ways to search Krark's Thumb.

I also can't wait until Second Sun and Energy Counters cycle out. F*** both of those. The first is super boring to play against (imagine Exodia solitaire but it takes 2 hours instead of 2 minutes) and the latter mechanic is ridiculously broken.

My approach to them is just getting value out of them, and not including every other coin flip card. Coin flip staples though are Chance Encounter and Frenetic Efreet. The rest of the deck is ways to draw/search Krark's Thumb, ways to make Okaun unblockable, and generic good blue and red cards like counterspells and board wipes. Blue is the Artifact synergy color, but tutoring is always on more expensive cards so be minsful of that. For straight Krark's Thumb tutors there's Fabricate, Reshape, Whir of Invention, and Tezzeret the Seeker. Muddle the Mixture also works. Then you have Spellseeker, Mystcal Tutor, and Drift of Phantasms to tutor your tutors. And there's also Gamble. Inventor's Fair is a good land for an artifact focused deck anyways. |

I'm gonna make a Jhoira artifact deck. Not that Cheerios storm crap though. That's boring.

Paradox Engine isn't the killer with the Cheerios deck. It's that lose 50 deal 50 artifact.

Aetherflux Reservoir is fine. Paradox Engine is the enabler that lets you storm off. Every artifact you play draws another artifact and untaps all your mana rocks, and you eventually go *almost* infinite until you can Aetherflux everyone out (which is the most annoying since you have to actually play through the whole thing, instead of just repeating a single loop to actually go infinite).
And it's not just in Jhoira Storm, it's too good in too many decks.

I wish Blightsteel wasn't $30. Could really use one and the Eldrazi Titans for the deck.

Same, but for Braids. Instead I got Acquire and I target the person I think would put Blightsteel in their deck.
Two of the Eldrazi Titans are also protection against mill if they're in your deck. I'd probably get one of them before Blightsteel.

They also both allow me to recycle self-destructing Cheerios and recover from that one red which sweeps all artifacts.

Retract/Hurkyl's Recall targeting yourself could also come in handy. If you want to be degenerate, add some mass land destruction. Don't need lands if you have mana rocks. |

Discounted Mana rocks that I can search for using Saheeli.

If you manage to ult Saheeli Rai: Aetherflux Reservoir, Paradox Engine, Ancestral Statue. If you have mana rocks that can tap for at least 4 mana you can win from there.
