The first Standard deck I want to make for this block.I love the idea of this deck, I'm sure you have all seen a form of Izzet artefacts, this is just my take on it.

As usual, we have Ensoul Artifact + Ornithopter for some turn 2 aggro. Generator Servant and Chief Engineer help spit out anything with a high cost out faster, such as Scuttling Doom Engine. Darksteel Citadel + Ensoul Artifact creates some scary indestructables, else DSC can be used for Shrapnel Blast targets along with any spare Ornithopter.

Phyrexian Revoker is definitely going to make a presence against triggered minions, acts as a convoke dump too and another Shrapnel Blast target, but I feel he isn't a main boarder, I'll have to play some games and see exactly how useful this can get. Crater's Claws is another card, along side Magma Jet that can replace Lightning Strike. I feel that overall with Keranos, God of Storms and Bident of Thassa scry wont be needed as much, but it depends if that extra 1 damage takes out any real threats this meta. As for the claws, that seems more useful late game once I have things out to proc that ferocious effect, so it all depends what my opponent is playing.

Edit

After playtesting a little, I feel Keranos isn't up to speed in this deck. There simple isn't even enough devotion to make him a creature and a I can't justify the cost when Bident does what i want him to do for one less. TIME TO CALL DOWN THE HEAVENS!
