the point of the deck is to utilize powerful flying creatures and swarming the opponent to seize victory

Ornithopter is used as a zero cost artifact that allows Quickling to take the stage without the negative effect. Quickling is also good at returning creatures targetted by removal spells as well as returning Master of Waves to the hand to abuse his summoning effect

this deck features a lot of creatures and so Military Intelligence is used to draw more cards as well as Bident of Thassa, as most creatures are flying and will be able to attack the opponent directly without being blocked

Ensoul Artifact is also great because it can be used on Ornithopter, Hall of Triumph, Springleaf Drum or my favorite: Darksteel Citadel (An indestructible 5/5 on turn 2 isn't too shabby)

Illusory Angel is great because you can get out a 4/4 flying on the third turn

Void Snare is great at clearing the battlefield to attack and deal damage, allowing you to draw from Bident of Thassa

Dissolve and Judge's Familiar is used to counter any pesky spells

Combos:Ensoul Artifact + Ornithopter
