I ranked 2nd at the pre-release with a thopter deck. I loved the speed and annoyance of these little constructs and wanted to create a deck that revolved around putting as many thopters in the field as possible. I did it budget wise, but I accept more pricey suggestions! But I would also like to make it rotation ready, so only Khans to Origins, in case you want to recommend something, please.

So, as I said, the key is that simple. Fill the field with thopters with the help of creatures that do so. The deck also has a small assistance from removal spells, bounce spells (that can also help us save some card AND put extra thopters), and non-creature counter spells (to save our fragile dearies specifically, since many cards can drain a bit of mana). Also, some nice buffers like Chief of the Foundry and War Horn. This last one is incredibly cheap and effective. The shinning stars of this deck are Pia and Kiran Nalaar, since they bring twice the thopters and make ALL artifacts potential Shocks. Next is Thopter Spy Network and it's great draw capabilities and thopter factoring.
