So this started as a U/W Artifact deck but I have since migrated to an Amurica build. The addition of direct damage to the mix really helps speed things up and gives a little more flexibility to handling board state. It also makes things like Ornithopter and Springleaf Drum offensive even without an Ensoul Artifact.

Ideal draw, Ornithopter, Springleaf Drum, Island, Darksteel Citadel, Ensoul Artifact, Shrapnel Blast or Boros Charm, and whatever.Turn 1, play Darksteel Citadel, tap, play Springleaf Drum & Ornithopter.Turn 2, Ensoul Artifact the Darksteel Citadel, swing for 5.Turn 3, Swing for 5Turn 4, Swing for 5 and either a) Boros Charm for the doublestrike or b) Shrapnel Blast for the win.

Not entirely sure about the Spear of Heliod in here. It's nice as an extra artifact and a bump for Ornithopter in a pinch but I'm not totally convinced that it wouldn't be better to run a 21st land. Still...I'm open to suggestions:)

Thanks!Suggestions are always welcome. Thanks.
