Don't know if you realize this but you have this deck under Standard while 75% not including mana is illegal in Standard.

if it's supposed to be Modern then how about Steel Overseer

It's illegal because Origins isn't technically legal in anything yet.

Soul seems like a great idea.

puimuri: GG changing title

What should I take out?

I like it, but I think that there might be problems if you're relying so heavily on M15 if they decide to rotate it out. It's obvious that Wizards wants Izzet thopters to be a thing, but I don't know how well it'll work if there isn't the king of all thopters, Ornithopter, or any of the good M15 artifact cards. (Unless it gets a reprint in BFZ)

Probably Reclusive Artificer. Blast can go straight for the face.

HolyFalcon says... #10

Yeah, unless BFZ has some good artifacts this deck won't be good post-rotation. But for now, it's legal until October.

I'll switch one out, but I wanna keep one in because I like the 2/2 body.

Looks great :)but why not more Shrapnel Blast?

July 10, 2015 12:46 p.m.

HolyFalcon says... #14

OK, I put a bit more in.

Nice Arnie reference and deck +1. What about Break Through the Line for some evasion. Guaranteed draw if you have spy network out, haste too if your token just hit the ground. Then they can 'Do eet Nao!!' :)

HolyFalcon says... #16

Hm, seems like it could be good as a one or two of.

You may want to update the description for some of your newer additions. Great job! +1

Yeah, when I can use my computer I'll go ahead and do that. Thanks!

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

July 12, 2015 1:13 p.m.

HolyFalcon says... #20

Yeah, I'm updating the description soon.

ok dude

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.

HolyFalcon says... #24

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)
