Welcome to this synergistic multiplayer artifact deck! It is perfect if you love to ramp, flood the board with artifact creatures, churn through your deck and have awesome recursion.
There are two major strategies that combine very well:

1. The proved and tested Sword of the Meek + Thopter Foundry combo
2. Standard's favourite Metalwork Colossus + Sanctum of Ugin synergy

Best scenario:

• Turn 2: Azorius Signet
• Turn 3: Hedron Archive
• Turn 4: Spine of Ish Sah, triggering all Sanctum of Ugins you have in play, and slam multiple colossi onto the board for zero mana!

Spine of Ish Sah is the Swiss Army knife of this deck. It gets rid of annoying grave-hate like Rest in Peace or Scavenging Ooze, triggers all Sanctum of Ugins you have in play to search for multiple Metalwork Colossus, and reduces their cost by 7 mana. In the lategame Spine of Ish Sah + Thopter Foundry can repeatedly destruct permanents.
Thirst for Knowledge lets you draw cards and discard Sword of the Meek which will then come back for free with the help of some 1/1 token generators.

It's not the fastest deck (it does not even have 1-drops aside from Windbrisk Heights), but it is very resilient due to the recursion of Metalwork Colossus.
The Thopter-combo provides nice lifegain and chumpers, and is a win-condition by itself. Furthermore, it accelerates the Colossus and lets him rebuild in no time!
In your winning turns, you can cast Whirler Rogue to tap some artifacts, give ultimate evasion to all your Colossi, and finish off your opponents!
Your worst enemies are exile-effecs like Path to Exile and Detention Sphere, this is why Thopter Foundry and Phyrexia's Core make a great job in here.
