MrProtagonist Read the description, you'll see :), and ArchdemonofShadow i really like the build.

i think it would be better if you remove Retraction Helix and add more threat like Soul of New Phyrexia , and make Izzet Charm on the main board. Over all i lke the idea!

Who is Generator Servant in here for? You mainly have 2 cost spells. Seems like he could get replaced with either a blocker or some draw mechanic to help you get an ensoul quicker.

Thanks for the comments guys! arbalest i find Izzet Charm to be a sideboard card in my opinion, against control and other decks like burn to counter things like Warleader's Helix if they're short on mana. sharper333 i did realize that a few ago before you said it XD i will probably replace it with Quicken , Divination , or maybe something like Mizzium Mortars . It just depends on what I need for the meta.

Actually no, Generator Servant helps cast Phyrexian Revoker and Illusory Angel a whole lot easier. I think I will take out Retraction Helix for a full set of Illusory Angel , 1 more Magma Jet , and 1 Mizzium Mortars mainboard. Again thanks for the comments!

awesome +1 id use more Mizzium Mortars and maybe Goblin Kaboomist

I had something like this in my head. I also wanted to play with Convoque and use Chief Engineer
July 10, 2014 3:31 p.m.
Thanks for the +1! ill definitely see if i can pick up a third Mizzium Mortars and see where it fits best. As for Goblin Kaboomist i have Magma Jet instead as a more reliable way of dealing 2 damage.

I mean, you don't really need Quicken , Phyrexian Revoker , Springleaf Drum and Mizzium Mortars in your main Board. you may have a little space for more heavy stuff maybe.
:)

andrehziinhu i feel like Chief Engineer is too slow for this type of build. It would fit better in a build with things like Scuttling Doom Engine and Soul of New Phyrexia .
July 10, 2014 3:34 p.m.
I purposefully built it in a smaller package to finish the game quicker instead of waiting until turn 6 or something. Maybe if i up my land count, i could add a Scuttling Doom Engine or two in sideboard.

Alright, In any case I would recomend Quickling then because you can cast in turn 3 along your 4/4.
you can put it in place of Quicken . I don't really see the point of Quicken here, since your hand will be full of damage, and you don't actually have time to dig in your library. remember that decks that play nowadays uses a bunch of removal spells, and this will be a free 2 for 1 in your Enchant artifact. maybe something to counter, or hexproof would be good too..

Also. Looking from above. your best card in your deck is Ornithopter . because it cost nothing, and adds alot. how do you feel about playing Tormod's Crypt mainboard instead of Springleaf Drum ?

andrehziinhu says... #17
this or any equipament that add some damage.... wouldn't it be better? :|
I'll stop at some point. I promise
July 10, 2014 3:55 p.m.
I don't mind at all! 1. Instead of Quickling , i could run Faerie Impostor but this minimal card draw in Quicken is essential. 2. Springleaf Drum compensates alot for mana in my 20 land deck :p Tormod's Crypt mainboard would be dead most matchups, the only reason i have so many sideboard is for dredge and Whip of Erebos strategies. 3. adding equipment would slow down this deck tremendously. I don't want to have a bunch of equipment in hand as long as decks like Boss Sligh and RDW and Mono-black aggro are still in standard.
July 10, 2014 4:08 p.m.
Actually, i do see the potential of Quickling now, but i am running full copies of cards like Ensoul Artifact and Peel from Reality does help with what Quickling is doing. I will test it out and see :D Thanks!

Also the flash gives you a chance to save some other guy
July 10, 2014 4:53 p.m.
andrehziinhu i found the perfect thing to replace Quicken , Prophetic Prism !

You need Scuttling Doom Engine . It just makes this deck so much more powerful. Imagine using a Shrapnel Blast on the SDE after swinging with it!! That's 17 damage!!!
July 16, 2014 1:05 a.m.
greywolf85 Yes, yes. But then if would include Scuttling Doom Engine i would have to rehaul the entire aggro theme of this deck, considering Doom engine is 6cmc. I have been considering this, upping my land count to 22, taking out 2 Illusory Angel and putting 1 Scuttling Doom Engine mainboard, I will consider this for awhile. Thanks for the suggestion! If you have any idea what I should do please tell :)

I would honestly remove all the angels for SDE and then toss out your Prophetic Prism for Chief Engineer because he can easily get out SDE. Here is the combo to get SDE out on turn 3 and win on turn 4: T1 Land + Ornithopter + Springleaf Drum - T2 Land + Generator Servant - T3 Land + Sac Generator Servant for 2 mana + haste + Tap Springleaf Drum + Ornithopter for 1 mana, tap land for 3, cast Scuttling Doom Engine , swing for 6 that can't be blocked by weenies. Next turn swing and sac with Shrapnel Blast for a total of 23 damage to face by T4 if all unblocked. Based off this deck: Artifact Synergy

Spectral Flight isn't in standard and haven't been spoiled in m15. So this isn't a legal standard deck.
