Boros Equipment EDH deck. Not pure voltron, but aiming to beef up a creature or two and win via combat damage.

Looking to make an optimized list, just without Plateau or Mana Crypt. I'm trying to go lean, keeping the average cmc low and looking to aggro opponents out quickly. Low cmc costs help me better leverage the cards I draw off of my commander. Suggestions are welcome! SB cards will be added in the future as I get them. In the meantime, help me pare the list down to 100!

Edit

Kellan, the Fae-Blooded is so good, that for a hot minute I was considering changing my commander for this deck. However, having a built-in card advantage machine in Wyleth, Soul of Steel is just too good for me to pass up for now. Kellen is just a straight upgrade compared to Open the Armory, that for now that's the swap I've made. There are so many equipment tutors in the deck, as well as a critical mass of equipment and equipment creatures that I think it's the correct swap for now. I've not felt the need for more equipment tutors in recent games, and even had one game where I was a little stuck on mana but had too many equipment tutors to really make use of them.

Which leads me to the next addition, The Irencrag! This is the most on-theme mana rock they could have made for the deck, and it checks all the boxes: 2cmc or less, and has a relevant late game ability. +3/+3 is nothing to laugh at, and it helps pay for itself if you have the mana on the same turn as you play a legendary creature, of which there are many in my list. The only thing I don't like about it is that it should have been a flip card since I'll need some way to indicate when I'm using the equipment part of it. Maybe someone will make a nice foil token of it in the future and I'll be able to use that! Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith was just a little too cute for this deck, and having the additional ramp is something that will keep the wheels running smoothly, so it was cut at this time.
