Tempestra, Dame of Games

Tempestra, Dame of Games is a clever sacrifice outlet that turns your expendable artifacts into temporary creature copies with haste. The gameplan revolves around building a critical mass of cheap artifacts and creatures, then using Tempestra's ability to clone your best creatures mid-combat or create explosive turns. You'll want creatures with strong enters-the-battlefield effects or attack triggers—think creatures that do damage when they hit, draw cards, or generate more artifacts. The deck naturally leans toward go-wide token strategies or aristocrats themes since you're constantly sacrificing and creating creatures.

Wins come primarily through combat damage by flooding the board with hasty clones of your threats. The artifact sacrifice cost is actually a feature, not a bug—you'll run mana rocks, Treasure tokens, and cards like Goblin tokens to fuel Tempestra's ability repeatedly. Since the copies aren't legendary, you can clone the same creature multiple times in a single turn if you have the mana and artifacts. This creates explosive turns where you're suddenly swinging for a lot of damage or triggering multiple abilities at once.
