If I had $400 per land, I would run 4 of those as they would rock in this deck. However, not likely to ever get my hands on one of these. Thanks for the suggestion.

As much as I want to spend $2000 on Moxes and a Black Lotus... lol

Grim Monolith is a winner. Added 2 of that guy. I can imagine an opening round of Artifact Land > Sol Ring > Grim Monolith > Sphere or Thorn. Next turn play Tolarian Academy and you have access to 7 mana on turn 2, cast a MycoSynth Golem and basically every other creature is free at that point. Love the suggestion.

Good catch. I was looking at the legality chart after I entered it, but it said it was legal. Must not have refreshed. 1 is better than none. :)

Indeed it could. I have a pillow fort deck that uses Propaganda/Norn's Annex like effects to great success.

I originally had that in my build, but found out I would rather have the permanent tax rather than during opponent's turn tax. It would be a definite sideboard addition if I was going against a deck that was running a lot of instant speed removal. Thanks for the suggestion.

Well, it definitely is the best land for an all artifact deck. Definitely worth an add. Although, my all artifact claim goes out the window, but who cares, it makes it that much better.

Good luck with all of that. I have a 6-month old myself and find time to comment on all these awesome decks of yours at work. About the only place where i can get some time to myself. :) But I wouldn't have it any other way.

You are right on. That card in this deck is brilliant. Added 2 copies. Pretty easy to get out too with Kuldotha Forgemaster and Mycosynth Golem. Thanks for the suggestion.

Well I appreciate it. I follow in your footsteps and try to reply to every comment people give me. I figure if they can spend the time to look at one of my decks and comment on it, I can take the time to reply. I love this community, so many good people. :)

Behold the power of Jessie! Add a deck link in one of his decks and you make the front page. Thanks brother.

If I had more combo pieces, Unwinding Clock would be an instant add. However, I do not see its usefulness in this deck. Wurmcoil Engine is a beater and added 4 of that guy. Where have you been all my life?
Thanks for the awesome suggestions.

The problem with an all artifact deck is adding colored spells. I do love me some shrapnel blast and Broodstars are the shit in this style of deck, however making the manabase without artifact lands is gonna be tricky. The intent of this deck was to tax the opponent and make my stuff cheaper. I have kind of gotten away from that with some of the more recent suggestions, but who knows maybe this will get even better.

Love both of those cards. However the Umbral mantle without the metalworker is pretty lackluster. I'll think a bit more about the mirrorworks. Seems like it could be pretty powerful.

I appreciate the blunt feedback :)
I do love Wurmcoil engine and the forgemaster. Definitely going to add both of those. If I was planning on making this tourney level, I would definitely think about Crucible/Wasteland and Trini combos. My play group is super casual, so this was meant more for that style of play. Check out my other decks to see the types of decks I like to make. Thanks for the suggestions.

Yeah, I used to run an affinity deck back in Mirrodin and loved Thoughtcast. I do want to make this an all artifact deck, as my play group is pretty casual. Thanks for the suggestion.

I do like War Tax, and it does fit the theme, but I am really liking this as an all artifact deck. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Juggernaut would work too. I did think it was weird to have Colossus, must have been a typo. Thanks for the suggestion.
