Really fun build using Ensoul artifact to smash in early, and sacrifice any artifact with shrapnel blast to maximize damage.

I know you've probably already seen a bunch of U/R artifact decks, but I believe I've taken a more Boros Burn-esque approach, such as not using slower cards like Soul Of New Phyrexia, or Colossus of Akros for example. (Although i am using Scuttling Doom engine as it immediately impacts the board if i can get it out turn 4 with Generator Servant.) I'd really appreciate any suggestions or criticism you may have.

(Name is based off of the anime Kill la Kill, the resemblence of the Rending scissors in the show to the art of Ensoul Artifact.)
