Vapor Snag and Electrolyze with the snappys sure takes me back. Yeah you could run other stuff to optimize this idea more like Urza's Saga+Viridian Longbow, but as it stands this list is--I believe the kids call it swag?

Profet93 is constantly suggesting this card in my decks and I think it would be appropriate here: Buried Ruin. Excellent alongside Crucible. Recycles the ramp this deck depends on.

Urza's Saga you have some juicy targets.

Amulet of Vigor speaking of juice, this solves a major problem for the land strategy.

Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx > Nyx Lotus

Sorry, one last idea. This one’s a little more gimmicky but also feels like it should perform well against a lot of decks just by being able to grind them down. It will require some savvy piloting as far as knowing when to play the Arbiter.

I think Choke is a card you’d probably leave in the sideboard to battle decks that use islands. But I think Power Conduit is a good mainboard addition:

• 4x Blooming Marsh
• 3x Oboro, Palace in the Clouds
• 1x Overgrown Tomb
• 4x Polluted Delta
• 4x Swamp
• 4x Verdant Catacombs

• 4x Urza's Saga

• 3x Quicksilver Fountain

• 4x Power Conduit
• 1x Shadowspear
• 1x Expedition Map
• 1x Nihil Spellbomb

• 1x Pithing Needle

• 4x Fatal Push

• 4x Damnation
• 2x Cling to Dust
• 4x Collective Brutality
• 3x Shadow of Doubt

• 4x Thoughtseize

• 4x Bloodghast

kamarupa both Choke and Power Conduit seem very interesting. I could see those being strong also. I like the idea of trying to incorporate those and Urza's Saga into my above list. It probably weakens things slightly, but does make for some interesting avenues/interactions

I'd want at least 2 Vampire Hexmage so I could combo Invasion of Ikoria  ^Flip more than once..

If budget isn't an issue, Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth always seem worth it to me.

I haven't ever messed around with Urza's Saga, but it doesn't look like you have all that many artifacts, so I have some doubts about how much beating down a Construct is really gonna do. If it were my deck, I'd probably abandon that mechanic in favor of a more consistent mana base, or I'd at least run more artifact defenders, of which there are some - Wall of Tanglecord, Steel Wall, etc.

Thank you for the suggestion to include white for Enlightened Tutor, jethstriker. I think I will playtest the deck a few times with Beseech the Mirror and will include white if I realize that it is too slow. Do you think Urza's Saga is absolutely necessary in today‘s Legacy format?

DreadKhan Thanks a Lot for your Feedback! In Commander and Casual Games, Transmute is my absolute favorite ability to bring my janky combo pieces together haha.

In this case, I fully agree with you that the unbanned tutors are not that great. However, I think Beseech the Mirror could have a place in that Artefakt based deck.

As for the Option to use mass Removals against creature Heavy Decks: I initially decided to play Ensnaring Bridge over mass relovals because I thought it would fit into the overall artefact based approach of that deck and would synergize well with Urza's Saga. Now I have realized that I would restrict myself because an empty hand with a huge construct and the Bridge would be awful for me haha.

Regarding Liliana's Caress and Quest for the Nihil Stone: would it be not better to play Shrieking Affliction instead?
