Creative Energy Upgrade Guide

Satya copies an artifact creature and grants energy. Energy fuels colored mana fixing, damage, and evasion. The upgrade goal is to lower the artifact curve, add token doublers, and generate absurd ETB copies.

Cast an artifact on curve every turn. From turn four, Satya copies your best artifact creature at declared attackers, banking energy that pays for later plays. Combo turns come from Aetherworks Marvel plus a cheap-to-copy artifact with a strong ETB.
