UR ensoul with a focus on Thopters. Playing 3x Ornithopter makes Military Intelligence great, GF blade better, Ensoul better, Chief of the Foundry slightly better, and allows playing on 21 lands. It makes Copter worse and Chief slightly harder to cast.

A great effect is that it makes the Mimic choice more dynamic; in my slower Ensoul deck, the choice is usually Construct, but here it is often Thopter.

Lastly, because of the extra Thopter synergy, I'm trying out 1x Snare Thopter as basically a 5th Shrapnel Blast. It's going to hit for at least 3 from nowhere, often 4 or 5 thanks to Chiefs and Mimics. Snare Thopter can help steal a card draw from Military Intelligence too.
