Inspirit, Flagship Vessel Commander Precon

Edge of Eternities Commander100 cards

This is a Jeskai artifact counters deck that lays down artifacts, then grows them with charge and +1/+1 counters and proliferates them, all under Inspirit's blanket of hexproof and indestructible for its other artifacts. Inspirit is stationed by tapping creatures. Once it reaches 1+ charge counters, it adds a +1/+1 counter or two charge counters to another artifact every combat, which accelerates counter-scaling engines like Empowered Autogenerator, Titan Forge, Insight Engine and Darksteel Reactor. Proliferate effects, counter doublers and counter-moving tools multiply that growth. The protected board also lets board wipes that spare artifacts, or that only hit nonartifact creatures, clear the opponents out. How it wins: It wins by pushing counters past a threshold, either 30 counters for Lux Artillery's 10 damage to each opponent or 20 charge counters on Darksteel Reactor, or by swinging with huge counter-pumped artifact creatures and Golem tokens given haste and evasion. Key roles: - Proliferate engine: These cards repeatedly add a counter of every kind already present, and Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus doubles each proliferate, so Inspirit's per-combat counters and every charge-based artifact climb quickly. (Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus, Kilo, Apogee Mind, Surge Conductor) - Counter payoffs and alternate wins: These artifacts convert accumulated counters into mana, cards, removal, or an outright win. (Darksteel Reactor, Lux Artillery, Empowered Autogenerator) - Counter multiplication and relocation: These cards double, move or preserve counters, so a stack can be concentrated on a win-condition artifact or saved when a permanent leaves. (Deepglow Skate, Moxite Refinery, Resourceful Defense) - Station fodder and token makers: Creatures and Golem or Gnome token producers supply bodies to tap for Inspirit and Uthros Research Craft, and later become the attacking force. (Titan Forge, Threefold Thunderhulk, Golem Foundry) - Artifact density, sunburst and cost reduction: Cheap artifacts, artifact lands, cost reducers and sunburst or converge enablers deploy many counter-bearing permanents quickly, which also fuels improvise, affinity and artifact-cast draw. (Solar Array, Etherium Sculptor, Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain) - One-sided sweepers and combat finish: Indestructible artifacts survive wrath effects that clear opposing creatures. Artifact-animating and haste effects then turn noncreature artifacts into an attacking army, with Alibou adding direct damage. (Organic Extinction, Depthshaker Titan, Alibou, Ancient Witness)
