PROTECTION FROM EVERYTHING!
I've wanted to put together an Armix & Rebbec deck for a while. The idea of creating an unstoppable army of artifact creatures always tickled me. But everytime I tried to put the deck together, I was always underwhelmed by the artifact creatures available to me and black as a whole as it traditionally didn't have a whole lot of artifact synergies outside of Armix, Filigree Thrasher & Skeleton Shard. That all changed with the Necron deck. Say what you will about UB, but it did produce some cool cards, especially for black artifact decks. Best of all, it also includes several black creatures with graveyard interactions.

Approximate Total Cost:
A few notes about the deck:
- I plan to add Tempered Steel as soon as I find where I put my copy. This also applies to my copy of Wurmcoil Engine - (Which I can't remember if I traded away or not...).
- There are actually a lot of onesided wraths available for the deck, which is really neat.
- With Equipment & Auras being nonbo with Rebbec, Architect of Ascension it actually opens up a lot of space for other cards, which is nice.
- In a similar vein, Armix, Filigree Thrasher being removal in the command zone means I can get away with running less spot removal.
- There were a surprising amount of recursion effects either on artifacts or could be cast from the graveyard/madness in BW.
- The nice thing about this list is that the black base is so strong now that if I find that Rebbec, Architect of Ascension is making games too samey, I can easily transition to another color combination like BU, BR, BG or even BWR.
- The deck has several ways to turn creatures into artifacts so Rebbec, Architect of Ascension can protect herself.
- I took out a few of the more annoying pieces like Smothering Tithe and God-Pharaoh's Statue on the idea that the deck doesn't need them.
- As always, suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.
