{Master Transmuter}:
Can I return something like {Elixer of Immortality} to my hand and then throw out {Blightsteel} on the 5th turn?
Turn 1: island
T2: island
T3: island + Elixer
T4: island + Transmuter
T5: island + Transmuter's ability, return Elixer, throw out Blightsteel.
T6: no blockers, 11 with infect.
Sure. Transmuter doesn't care what artifact you return to your hand. You can return an Elixir, an Artifact Land, or even the Transmuter herself. You just have to bounce an artifact.
Yes, but good luck having no blockers turn 6.
It'd be nice to throw out a {Bow of Nylea} as well. :) But I'd like a mono blue artifact deck.

I don't think blightsteel NEEDS deathtouch.

Deathtouch is a plus... Only needs to deal 1 damage to trample over
But this IS possible, though, correct?
Yessir. Not even terrible odds of an opening hand having all you need (assuming you run four of each). It'll also be sweet to watch your opponents face as an 11/11 trample, infect, indestructible hits the table. On turn six. In a blue deck.
Unfortunately I only have 3 blightsteels, but the odds are still there.
Is there another way to bring out blitghty with a blue deck early in the game? Let's estimate around turn 5-6.
Edit: Since Blightsteel isn't Legendary, I also run 4 {Clone}s and 4 {Copy Artifact}s.
{Tinker} is really useful. Also, {Ornithopter}s and {Memnite}s are good for sacrificing.
For the transmuter, you could bounce mox opal back to hand then play it again, you don't need elixir

Great point. Why not run a playset of {Mox Opal}s and Hockey Pucks ({Darksteel Relic}s) instead? You could also use {Ornithopter} or {Memnite} and {Springleaf Drum} to bluff affinity. I would go with 4x {Springleaf Drum}, 4x {Ornithopter}, 4x {Memnite} and 4x {Mox Opal}s.

{Muzzio, Visionary Architect} can do it T4. Without mana acceleration. If you're lucky and have a high(ish) cost artifact on the board. {Brainstorm} greatly helps set up (if Blightsteel is in your hand you can put it on top of your library.) {Arbiter of the ideal} does the same(ish) thing.
I've been hunting a {Blightsteel Colossus} for a while for my {Muzzio, Visionary Architect} Commander deck.
Is there a cheap way to quickly get {Omniscience} out? The earlier the better.

{Show and Tell} another omniscience. {Jhiora of the Ghitu}
{Seat of the Synod} makes this combo easy. Just saying. I put crazy stuff out with master transmitter all day long in EDH. Super fun card. And as Link pointed out, Muzzio kicks major butt too. One of my most favorite new additions to Sydri.
You could also use {treasure mage} to fetch Blightsteel for your {master transmuter}

I wouldn't want to reveal it, I'd want to either have it in my hand already or draw it early in the game. I mean, there isnt any surprise in revealing an 11/11 trample, indestructible, infect. If they know it's coming, they'll prepare for it.
If they've played your deck before they'll know it's coming. It's not a terrible idea but I'd probably keep it sideboarded.
I never carry just 1 deck. :p
I like to play around with multiple decks, although, my blue/white deck and my Gruul deck are my favorites. :3

I just made my fourth Commander deck and I have seven others. The more the better!

What about for Blue? I'm wanting to make a blue artifact deck. Ive never seen someone pull a Blightsteel out in a mono blue deck. :D
That would work well with Scry. :)
{polymorph} b!tches! Haha
Seriously tho, check out Woo's Brews. He made one with {master transmitter}... I am currently in the process of making a similar version... Dem {mox opals} tho... ðŸ˜
Side note: Travis Woo is the man! He comes up with the best stuff!

Turn one good?
T1: Land, {Lotus Petal}, exile {Simian Spirit Guid}. Cast {Show and Tell}. {Omniscience} on the field.
Ffs, that is awesome! Now all I need is lotus petal and show and tell! Off to the trading section!
That's begging for people to quit playing with you.
