Strategy
Starscream is a transforming powerhouse that rewards you for playing artifact synergies and converting (morphing) between its two forms. The front side is a flying, haste creature that pressures opponents early, while the back side becomes a powerful enchantment that gives your artifacts evasion and pumps them. Your gameplan revolves around a mix of artifact tokens, sacrifice outlets, and creatures that benefit from artifacts entering and leaving the battlefield.
Build around cheap artifact producers like Welcoming Vampire and Scrap Trawler, then layer in cards that abuse the convert mechanic or trigger when artifacts ETB/LTB. Since Starscream has living metal, you're naturally inclined toward black artifact strategies—think recursive threats, aristocrats payoffs, and evasion-granting effects. You'll win through a combination of commander damage (pumped by the back side), token swarms, and attrition from sacrifice loops.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Skip expensive mana rocks; use Ornithopter, Memnite, and other free artifact tokens instead. Bolas's Citadel is pricey—Viscera Seer or Cartel Aristocrat work fine as sacrifice outlets.
