SOOoooo the basic premise of this deck is to get Volrath to pilot the Metalwork Colossus. i.e. use its self recursion ability to buff Volrath into one-shot range and hit people really, really hard in the mouth.

There's a few other creatures that can recur themselves as well as an artifact sub-theme, but the only intentional win-con is Gundam-style voltron. It's not a great deck. Probably not even a good deck, but lately I've been on a kick trying to develop decks around specific cards.

This is the first iteration of the deck, could probably use more artifact tutors, eggs, card draw and the like, so suggestions are quite welcome.
