Lonis, Genetics Expert + Clan Crafter + Krark-Clan Ironworks + Stridehangar Automaton

Lonis, Genetics Expert

Clan Crafter

Krark-Clan Ironworks

Stridehangar Automaton

How it works

1. Activate Lonis by paying 2 and sacrificing another artifact.
2. If the artifact was a Clue, Lonis' third ability triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on any other creature you control.
3. Resolve the Lonis ability, putting a +1/+1 counter on it and causing you to draw a card.
4. Lonis' second ability triggers, creating a Clue token and a 1/1 Thopter artifact creature token.
5. Activate Krark-Clan Ironworks by sacrificing the Thopter, adding CC.
6. Repeat.

This brilliant loop turns your artifact tokens into a self-sustaining engine, fueled by Clan Crafter granting Lonis, Genetics Expert a built-in sacrifice outlet that draws cards and grows your board. Every time you activate that ability, Stridehangar Automaton steps in to turn your generated Clue token into both a Clue and a flying Thopter, ensuring you always have spare metal to feed back into Krark-Clan Ironworks for mana. Because Stridehangar Automaton also pumps those same Thopters, you can easily swing for lethal damage or funnel all those counters wherever you need them most while cycling through your entire deck.
