U/R Thopter Assault (Standard MTG Deck)

I came up with the idea for this deck at the origins prerelease. I pulled a Thopter Spy Network and realized how great it was. Every time I got it by turn 6 I won. It inspired me to create a thopter themed deck and here it is

So, this is a U/R deck that pumps out thopters to kill your opponent. The Thopter Spy Networks are a key part of the deck as the card draw and thopter every turn helps maintain control. Once it gets started it's hard to stop. Pyromancer Goggles with Shrapnel Blast deals 10 damage and you only have to sacrifice a single artifact. Pia and Kiran Nalaar are great on turn 4 and later their ability become very relevant. Hangarback Glider is far better than I originally thought. Tomb of the Spirit Dragon gets pretty broken giving you 5+ life a turn. Only 1 Jace and 1 Chandra for flavor reasons.

So far in my small playgroup it has done very well. I can't wait to test it out in FNM and Origins Game Day. Any and all advice is welcome! Thanks!

Hope you enjoy my deck!

I took out 2 fiery impulses and chandra for another Hangarback Walker, another Ornithopter, and another Ensoul Artifact. I took out my two Renowned Weaponsmiths for a fourth Thopter Engineer and fourth Chief of the Foundry. Jace is coming out for a fourth artificers epiphany.
