Your best options here are probably playable cards like Burlington Coat Factory - er, Forge Tender - or fringe playables like Energy Storm, Circle of Protection: Red, and Soulfire Grand Master. You can get one of the Big Three tinker targets: Blightsteel, Inkwell Leviathan, or Sphinx of the Steel Wind, depending on the matchup. If you run cards that protect you from the damage dealt by Madcap, you are now playing with Tinker (that sometimes kills you, YOLO). This is where i think people need to focus their efforts. And, why not just run Metalworker / Sol Lands? I don't see the point here. Still, if you do that, sometimes you will kill yourself. You could just jam this in a deck with 10+ fat artifact creatures so that you never worry about killing yourself. If you're playing this in Legacy, you must be on a shoestring budget. Moreover, both Emperion and Angel open you up to instant-kills in response. Sublime Artificer and the Madcap Experiment-Platinum Emperion combo. Out here, we use Natural Order to get far more potent creatures than Mr. Combo Enablers This category refers to cards whose primary function is to help. In the case of the former, an 8/8 for 4 seems fine for Modern but I think it's actually pretty terrible for Legacy. You lose the game if this creature leaves play.

So that’s it for this edition of “Deck of the Week.” Stay posted for our next feature next week.So, if you want to run Madcap Experiment, you either need to get protection from it, have tons of artifacts, or roll into Platinum Angel / Emperion.ģR - Put an 8/8 artifact creature into play.

Blood Moon is the perfect compliment to this control-esque approach, and Emrakul, the Aeons Torn is an excellent finisher that can steal games in an instant. It’s too bad we can’t make that good use of use of the Madcap Experiment plus Platinum Emperium combo, since people will already be bringing in artifact and enchantment removal because of Chalice of the Void and Blood Moon. There isn't much that's new in this build, but blue seems well placed in the meta right now. Meanwhile, Izzet Staticaster and Anger of the Gods are very good against Affinity and Humans, the premier aggro decks of the format right now. Favorable matchups such as Tron and Eldrazi decks are made better with access to Abrade and Disdainful Stroke. The deck's sideboard packs the Platinum Emperion plus Madcap Experiment package, which gives you an additional angle of attack besides Through the Breach and Emrakul. There's also a singleton Vendilion Clique that provides additional utility and much needed information before you decide to go in on a Through the Breach.

Noticeably missing in this list's disruption package is Spreading Seas, which has been cut in favor of more redundancy in the other cards.

Through the Breach plus Emrakul, the Aeons Torn is the newest addition to this arsenal. This combo works because the damage from the Experiment. Blue Moon is a deck that has experienced a ton of variation over the years, most notably in its win conditions. The deck also contains a backup combo and win condition in Madcap Experiment into Platinum Emperion.
