This is a modern birthing pod deck with artifact affinity.

The strength of affinity is its speed and with Mox Opal and Springleaf Drum with affinity, I should be able to quickly ramp up to Frogmite and Myr Enforcer. Frogmite pods into Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer, Zealous Conscripts or Furystoke Giant depending on what threats I face. Those 5 drops can pod into Wurmcoil Engine if needed.

Myr Enforcer pods into Griselbrand or Craterhoof Behemoth.

I have no 3 drops to pod into with Vault Skirge aside from Treasure Mage because I feel that the 3-drops are weak and with affinity, I should be able to quickly ramp into Frogmite and Myr Enforcer.

This deck plays a lot of card draw with Thoughtcast and See Beyond and although Thoughtcast may put some of my birthing pod targets into my hand, I feel that the card advantage is worth the risk.

I am not sure if this is stronger than Modern Affinity and plan to continue to develop this deck following playtesting on cockatrice and suggestions from you all.
