Description of deck by its author
(quoted):
I think it's pretty much a rule that you have
to hate your boss. This is true no matter no what your job is. Now,
imagine that you flogged steam for a living. Once you wrapped your head
around the fact that you ended up in such a bizarre career, wouldn't it
be hard not to just loathe your boss, some guy sitting in the little
metal pod-thingie who was, like, flogging you all the time? It seems to
me that a little ill will would be justified in this case. As we all
know, Steamflogger Boss is perhaps the most maligned creature of all
time, due to its currently meaningless rules text about "contraptions."
If you're not assembling contrabulous fabtraptions,
you've gotta admit that Steamflogger Boss is a pretty decent "lord,"
sort of a cross between Sosuke, Son of Seshiro and Goblin Warchief. At
least, he would be a pretty good "rigger lord" if there were any other,
you know, Riggers in the game (besides Mistform Ultimus). At this point,
you are probably wondering, What does the king of the flogosphere have
to do with Enchantment Week?" Well, the answer is simple. We can solve
our Rigger-less situation with Conspiracy, an enchantment designed to
help one terrible tribe (Mercenaries) that can now help another!
The deck has a ton of ways to make tokens, which will
become little Riggers as long as you have a Conspiracy on the table.
Skirk Ridge Exhumer and Sparkspitter, Mogg War Marshal and Sengir
Autocrat, Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder and Sarpadian Empires, Vol. VII,
Kher Keep and Urza's Factory. Perhaps my favourite Rigger comes from
Dark Depths. Marit Lage is just so much cooler with +1/+0, haste, and a
goblin with a steam-powered flogging maching bossing him/her/it around.
I'm using Wheel of Fate and Living End to recreate a
little of that old Goblin-Bidding fun, with Steamflogger Boss in the
role of Goblin Warchief. The Wheels, along with the Exhumers and
Sparkspitters, help to fill up your graveyard with creatures for the
eventual Living End. If you don't like that plan, you can just use
Endrek Sahr to make tons of Rigger tokens. With Conspiracy and Endrek on
the table, you can play Steamflogger Boss and make four 2/1 Rigger
tokens with haste. Sengir Autocrat will give you six points of hasty
power, and best of all, won't take his Serf tokens with him when he
kicks the bucket (because there won't be any Serf tokens!).
