One way people went about fixing this problem is Platinum Emperion, which makes it so our life total can't change. So, in some ways, Madcap Experiment is more random than it looks, unless we're willing to risk our life and potentially die from the damage it deals to make sure we get a Blightsteel Colossus.
This is the downside of playing Madcap Experiment with just a playset of a single artifact, and if we play more than one artifact, then we are not guaranteed to hit the one we want. We cast a Madcap Experiment, and we know 100% that we are going to end up with a Blightsteel Colossus. The problem is that we are going to lose, on average, somewhere around 15 life, which is fine if we can just immediately kill our opponent but a little risky. So, we have a 60-card deck with four Madcap Experiments and four Blightsteel Colossus. When I first read Madcap Experiment, the first card that popped into my head was Blightsteel Colossus.
Then, Madcap Experiment deals damage to you equal to the number of cards revealed this way. Madcap Experiment is really unique, as a four-mana sorcery that lets us reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal an artifact then, you put the artifact on the battlefield and put the rest of the cards on the bottom of your library in a random order. Second, I really like the lesson that Madcap Experiment can give us: sometimes, there's more than meets the eye when it comes to building around a card, and sometimes, drawbacks are not drawbacks but actually benefits or even the entire reason to play a card. First, the card we are talking about is one of my favorites from Kaladesh: Madcap Experiment. I'm super excited for this week's episode of Brewer's Minute for two reasons. In total, no less than thirty different archetypes were being played, including strategies based on Eidolon of Blossoms, Madcap Experiment, Smallpox, Protean Hulk, and Enduring Ideal.Hello, everyone, it's Seth-probably better known as Saffron Olive-and it's time for another Brewer's Minute. Established archetypes like Lantern Control, Infect, Ad Nauseam, and Goryo's Vengeance decks almost broke the 1.5 percent threshold, but so did more wacky creations such as Black-White Tokens, Spirits, and Goblins. Of course, as always, the most interesting part of the metagame was hiding under the “Other” label. The influx of new cycling cards from Amonkhet was also featured within some Living End decks. The newly popular green-white midrange decks also made good use of a somewhat new card in Renegade Rallier, while Collected Company players were quick to adopt the combination of Vizier of Remedies and Devoted Druid.

Grixis decks ran the full gamut from control to aggro-control, with some picking up the new Bone Picker. Decks based on the trio of Urza's Tower, Urza's Mine, and Urza's Power Plant rounded out the top three. Next were Death's Shadow decks, commonly in Jund colors with the optional addition of white, although single players also opted for a straight Abzan or even Grixis build. Leading the ranking of the most popular archetypes was, unsurprisingly, the black-green midrange strategy with either white or red a minor surprise was that white was almost twice as popular as red here. It took a while to get a handle on 674 decklists, of course, but we got the numbers in.
With 674 players, the Modern main event set a new record.
