Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Hot Take: I think Syr Ginger might be the best card in Wilds of Eldraine\n-Being a food artifact means she plays well in Limited with both the mutual synergy with the BG archetype of food as well as the new Bargain mechanic\n-She's also a colorless Knight so she can played in most any EDH deck of that tribe\n-In Standard at least, the keywords she gains makes her resistant to a majority of planeswalkers that see play; this basis could very well be the floor that lets her see in some number of decks in Constructed\n-She's a great outlet for any strategy enabled by junking your artifacts\n^ It's this reason in conjunction with the context of the deckbuilding contest that lead me to build this deck\n\nThe focus of the deck is to use tons of artifact mana to leverage synergies created by the previously mentioned artifact sacc-ing; the most potent synergy being the interaction between the abundant mana from Krark-Clan Ironworks plus the numerous pairs of \"i return another artifact when i die\" cards, Mystic Forge acting like strictly better Future Sight (a well-deserved pedigree for the card in the decks that play it there) and Syr Ginger growing infinitely large AND scrying so you can filter the chaff and just cast your whole deck. (Thran Spider can also work here in the event you don't have Mystic Forge)\nWin cons range from infinite damage Walking Ballista, summoning hordes of little minions like with Hangarback Walker/Mishra's Self-Replicator/Retrofitter Foundry/Cogwork Assembler or just having big dumb beaters like Syr Ginger and her horsey friend hit the opponents VERY HARD\n\nThe title is a play on the Guinness World Records article detailing the weird past exploits of Michel Lotito, the record-holder for the world's \"strangest diet\" of metal, rubber, and glass objects: most notably including an entire Cessna 150 airplane\n which proposes an interesting question: How much value would an entire airplane provide?\n"}]}
