How does this version compared to the Volatility + Moment of Creation version?
Arcengal Edited Eternal Version: 1.50.8
Well, I hit Masters in February with this deck too. I find the experience to be a bit frustrating with this list: you absolutely destroy any poor aggro or midrange deck if you draw the right half of your deck, but because this particular list is so reactive it can be difficult to match up well against control and sometimes the aggro decks just go under you. The influence requirements have often kicked my arse as well, usually because of bad luck from Display of Purpose.

I think my biggest complaint is the market - the five cards are all individually good but none of them propel you into a proactive state if you weren't there already; you need to have drawn a relic weapon already to get one out of your graveyard with Smithing and the other cards are all removal-based (Dysjunction offered a second re-buy option). I'd like to find room for a Seek Answers - it helps get you over the annoying crest of your power base if you need to get to bigger numbers, or it just exchanges for a non-power card and, hopefully, gives you something to do.

I'm still going to keep playing it but I do feel there's something more than it wants to be. I'm just not sure what that is.

Great list. I even considered to play Expedition.
- Isn't Midias, Leyline Dragon a better dragon then Stonesmelt Dragon ? Unless relic removal main board important in Expedition meta.
- Does Keeper's Shield compete for 3 slot Relic Weapon with Sword of Icaria ? It seams that Shield will benefit more especially with cards like Soldrain Smithing, Strange Blacksmith, Disjunction. Could be wrong thou.
AhornDelfin Eternal Version: 1.50.6
The relic removal is the main reason I run Stones melt Dragon, since it's the only tutor able one and there are quite a few relevant relics around. Sword of Icaria is a 1 of since it allows you to use Dragon forge on turn 5 to draw it and play it in the same turn after you play Traveler. You don't want to spellcraft keepers shield, so it's mostly a worse sword.
Hexxen Eternal Version: 1.50.6
Does this deck suppose to play reactive or proactive or both depending on situation ? Are there cards in meta to play around with this deck ?
Hexxen Edited Eternal Version: 1.50.6
Got it. Hammer t4 or Vestege t5 off the forge it is.
p57adxo Edited Eternal Version: 1.50.6
I love this deck.. It does have a fighting chance against FTS Sac deck.
- Midias, Leyline Dragon do come to my mind. But, based on my small experience, I do appreciate relic removal more.
- I do agree that the Sword of Icaria is kinda meh at some point (in this deck). My suggestion is, if you want to replace Sword of Icaria,
try to replace it with the Magebreaker.

I do have a single Victor's Feast which does bail me out a couple of time (credit: WhyISalty)
Stevercakes Eternal Version: 1.50.5
Damn, i dont have the needed 49,000 shiftstone to create the remaining cards lol
Talares Eternal Version: 1.50.5
I don't have Naoki yet and not enough shiftstone to craft her, so I put in 1 Magebreaker, 1 Edge of Prophecy, 1 Stonescar Maul against Mirror and 1 Stronghold Visage for funsies and they feel great

Why Xulta Arcanum?
AhornDelfin Eternal Version: 1.50.4
It's one of the best value cards in Expedition and the deck is all about grinding.
Siewak Edited Eternal Version: 1.50.4
This deck is abusive, it's throne level of control in expedition, just hit masters with it.
I personaly found myself drawing into to many power cards so i cut 1 Display of Creation and 1 Seek Power i also cut 1 Ageworn Vestige because i found 4 copies make my deck to clunky and 3 attack parries badly with a lot of 4 health creatures that i was facing.
I added few diffrent weapons to give myself more options, but I didn't make my mind which one are good yet.

Thanks for deck!
JTJag Edited Eternal Version: 1.50.3
If I haven't crafted Naoki yet, is there a decent replacement for him? I have pretty much everything else.
AhornDelfin Edited Eternal Version: 1.50.4
There is nothing that really does the same, but you can try Strange Blacksmith, more Sword of Icarias or Jadecrafter in that slot
