the "can't" under the creatures tab has a semi-colon instead of an apostrophe.

I bought the starter deck for this after seeing this and playing against it at FNM a couple days ago in casual mode. I'm thinking that this will be very powerful in standard, but I might try to make one that's modern/casual, where I have things like Frogmite and some other light affinity stuff, plus maybe the red and blue artifact lands (taken out during modern play, if I do any b/c of their banned status)

Something I'd suggest though, the text is really hard to read against the pic of Chandy and daddy Naalar. Looks awesome, but maybe there's a text color option to set it to the same light blue as everything else? That shows up well and looks good.

Then again, the more I think about it, in true modern play, it'd be too slow, with so many 4-drops, so maybe standard is the right way to go on this one.

Ok, I'll change it to orange, or if that doesn't work purple. Glad I got you into artifacts!

I've been into artifacts for a while. I have an Esper deck that's just meant to be casual, but it can do some work if you don't play a super competitive deck against it. That said, a barely built one of these decks beat it pretty well because of the flying. Synergy doesn't mean squat if you can't block. That's the problem I can forsee this deck running into, though, is how much flying it'll be running against, especially being mid-range and against dragons, other thopters, and at least for a while, Hornet Queen/Hornet Nest. Little 1/1 or 2/2 (with boosts) thopters aren't really anything against 6/6's and 1/1's that do that naughty thing when they touch your guys. :/ (Talking about deathtouch insect tokens btw)

the orange text works great!

One card you may want to add to the sideboard if aggro decks with many X/1's become popular, which seems likely, is Circle of Flame. Also, I don't think having 3x Shrapnel Blast in the main and 2x Shrapnel Blast in the sideboard is a very effective strategy :)

In my experiance I liked Generator Servant over Renowned Weaponsmith. But he is only a one time use.

July 13, 2015 4:04 p.m.

Circle of Flame in sideboard is good against Goblins or Elves. I'd also go up to 4 Scuttlesworths and down to 1 Soul.

how did you get that background?

I'll post code on profile, but afterwards delete it. Do you also want the clear text boxes and font coloring?

Oh yeah. Great deck by the way. I think in terms of improving the deck i personally would lower the curve a littlebit and up the numbers on some of your better cards.

You won't be able to delete it.

You can't delete from your own wall anymore?

July 13, 2015 8:55 p.m.

Not if you're not upgraded.
