HOW AND WHY TO PLAY THIS DECK

This is an optimized casual mono-red deck focusing on grinding out value from graveyard recursion of artifacts.

The main thing here is to get Daretti, Scrap Savant out by no later than turn 2. Yes I said "no later than". Getting him out this early is, by a far margin, the best way to keep him alive through the table's inevitable chip damage and spot removal. And, using his +2 ability as often as possible is how this deck wins games by out-drawing and out-valuing every other deck at the table. We have plenty of fast mana rocks that make this happen,and then later be sacrificed to get back something bigger.

You will only need 5 or 6 lands out with this deck, so when you draw more than that keep them in your hand to discard to Daretti or Faithless Looting.

Don't worry if Daretti dies a turn or two later, he is cheap enough that he should be recastable easily with all the mana rocks you amassed in the first place. Folks will eventually run out of planeswalker-centric spot-removal and by turn 5 or 6 there will be bigger threats on the board than a card that lets you cast Faithless Looting every turn for your opponents to worry about. This is when Daretti's -2 ability can kick in, or when you can start quietly building up to his -10.

There is also a 'Goblins with Toys' sub-theme that makes this deck like a gang of goblins rummaging through a landfill for the Vorthos players out there.

PLAN A

Have a Mycosynth Lattice out and cast a Vandalblast. Lots of ways to tutor or reanimate the Lattice into play, but the Vandalblast has to be either drawn or Gamble'd into play. You can also destroy a lot of lands with Karn, Silver Golem if you have the Lattice in play.
