If this is your list that needs help, it seems like a good list. Personally in the CoCo meta I would mainboard 3-4 Etched Champions and run more removal, maybe 3-4 Galvanic Blasts. Other than that affinity is well positioned in the current meta having won a GP recently link and being an affinity player myself.

i have seen affinity lists running Dispatches more recently as well. its good against finks, angler, taz. i like a 3-1 split of galvanic blasts and dispatches. i would cut the masters of etherium to go up to 3 etched champions and run an extra blast and a dispatch.

WovenNebula, that is the version I am playing right now. What would you cut from the main for a 3rd Etched Champion?

Is there any merit to making a Tempered Steel build with Dispatch?

I'd cut a Master of Etherium to make room for one more Etched Champion mainboard.
Personally I haven't had experience playing with Tempered Steel, I always welcome different builds just for the sheer fun of it to mix it up, but I don't know enough to give you good advice on it. I can give you this Link that goes into good detail on that version of affinity.

Paul Ritzel's list is the one I have been looking at. I will probably try it out just to see if its really worth it.
What do you think of Spellskite in the main?

Spellskite in the main is more or less a meta call. I play with it in my main as I face a good amount of Twin and Removal.

@lightningbolts4ever Your welcome and no problem. If you do go with Tempered Steel try to get a lot of practice in, all I know about it is that it's strategy plays out a little different and that can cost a game.
