Card Choice

Artifacts are fun, but unfortunately, I don't see this being a Tier 1 deck. Regardless, here is my choices when it comes to each card type.

Creatures

4 Ornithopter: This thing can be used in conjunction with Chief Engineer or Springleaf Drum to cast other artifacts, Ensoul Artifact to be a 5/5 flying beater, or even Shrapnel Blast to burn something.

4 Phyrexian Revoker: Shuts down activated abilities of things. If anything, it's a 2/1.

4 Chief Engineer: Helps me play my artifacts. I can play him into other cards, since Convoke ignores summoning sickness.

3 Scuttling Doom Engine: Artifact, beater, can't be blocked by weenies, and has value when it dies? Yes please.

2 Soul of New Phyrexia: Makes all of my stuff indestructible for a cost. Not bad if you ask me.

1 Guardian of the Ages]: As a larger trampler. This is a meta choice because most of the meta is aggro where a lot of stuff is attacking me.

Artifacts

4 Springleaf Drum: Gives me mana ramp in this lowly artifact deck, but only if I have creatures.

3 Haunted Plate Mail: Is either an equipment or a 4/4 depending on the situation.
