This deck revolves around beating down your opponent with monsters that just keep coming!
Primary Win Con
Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle: Every time you play an artifact or legendary (most of the deck) you get a small dude from your graveyard. You can use this with Sparring Construct for some fun.
Phylactery Lich: A fun card that your opponent will have a hard time dealing with. You can slap the counter on your cheap non-creature artifacts like Treasure Map
or Wand of Vertebrae
Forebear's Blade: This card "turns on" cards like Lich or other guys that are easily blocked. Because of its effect that transfers the equip on death you can always equip it to guys you know will die like Sparring Construct
On Serra's Wings: Similar to your Blade this "turns on" cards like Lich. Unlike Blade it doesn't jump between your small minions when they die so save it if you can to attach to bigger guys.
Secondary Win Con
Lingering Phantom: Heavy late game support. It just keeps coming back so you can keep putting threats out even when you largely run out of steam.
Weatherlight: Search for things while attacking. Pretty good I'd say.
Isareth the Awakener: Good graveyard search with the only downside being anyone you grab is a one time deal. Still, you can bring back 4 costs cards unlike Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle so you can bring back that card itself. Unfortunately there are some unintuitive mechanics with her at least for me. If she dies all her revived minions still exile. Also when they exile they don't trigger their "dies" effects (so don't bring back Sparring Construct)
Support
Board the Weatherlight: Can search for win cons but is slow on tempo so not sure if it even belongs here.
Wand of Vertebrae: Fuels the graveyard when played early and fuels historic triggers when played late.
Treasure Map
: Really solid artifact that lets you search for win cons if played early.
Costly Plunder: Fuels your graveyard with weak artifacts and creatures and lets you draw into more historic cards to trigger effects. You can feel pretty happy sacrificing Sparring Construct Skyscanner or even Wand of Vertebrae. You can even do a fun thing by sacrificing Phylactery Lich when Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle is in play and then play a historic card you drew to bring it back. This lets you add another counter to any of your artifacts and your first one didn't go away so now its protected in two locations.
Small Guys
Sparring Construct: Infinite +1/+1 counters!
Skyscanner: Infinite draw!
