Description of deck by it's author
(quoted):
There’s a lot of counter-shifting going on here, and not all of it
requires the Power Conduit. The Ancient can boost the Egg’s size on
each of your upkeeps. Here, the fun of the deck is keeping your charge
counters separate from your +1/+1 counters on the Egg. (Yes, you keep
the +1/+1 counters, even when the Egg is just an artifact. See 212.1b:
“when an object’s type changes…counters, effects, and damage
affecting the object remain with it, even if they are meaningless to the
new type.”) Timing is important here: you can only move the Ancient’s
counters onto a creature. So at the beginning of your upkeep, you will
need to put the triggered ability on the stack – recall you need not
name targets – and then turn the Egg into a creature. That Egg ability
will resolve first, and then the Ancient’s – now you throw some
+1/+1 counters on the Egg. This sounds involved, but since you’ll end
start each round with as many new counters on the Ancient as you put on
the Egg, you’ll likely be looking at a 9/9 or better when you attack
on your fifth turn.
