Deck discussion for Help Wanted - Standard Myr

I think you should have 4 Tempered Steels and probably 4 Red Sun's Zeniths as well. All Is Dust is a very nice touch.

I like the deck, and I think it will be effective at swarming your opponent with creatures. At this point, I believe you should be considered what your weakest matchups will be and including a few measures against those decks mainboard. I don't like having certain cards in the sideboard if I know there is a zero percent chance of winning a matchup without the card in my deck. Given that you could be facing anything, its best to be prepared.

For example, this last Friday (2-25-11 for future reference) I included three copies of Divine Offering in my main deck allies. I did this because I was anticipating the Stoneforge Mystic combos as well as WW Quest Decks. I was right on the money and won game 1 easily after hitting my opponents Argentum Armor on turn 2.

Where would I want to trim though?

I think I'd point my trimming sciossors at Myr Welder and Myr Resevoir. I think multiple copies of the Reservoir would be unnecessary. You already have a lot of mana ramp here, and do not need the extra push this card delivers. But it is a very nice card and would be excellent in matchups against removal heavy decks. But maybe just 2 going into game 1.

I think Myr Welder is a cool card, but I think you are likely to just draw the card whose ability you were copying.

With all of these myr, you might want to put some metalcraft stuff in, especially Galvanic Blast instead of Red Sun's Zenith, because with all of these myr your Galvanic Blast will be like a Lightning Bolt on steroids but still for one mana, and that's seems much better than the Zenith, or at least that's what I think. Anyway, nice deck.

I wouldn't cut the Zeniths for Galvanic Blasts. Or Lightning Bolts for that matter. I would run them side by side. Zenith and Bolt that is.

However, on the note of metalcraft cards, I think you might like Concussive Bolt. Excellent for an army of Myr.

Myr Sire can be cut, as well as myr propagator, as well as red sun's zenith (see last comment)

Steel Overseer, Tempered Steel, All is Dust, Galanic Blast, Oust, Semblance Anvil, Prototype Portal, Tumble Magnet, are all additions that can be added. (they are listed in the order that i think fit best to worse.)

I would almost play green instead of red as your second color and get garruk (second turn its out overrun?) and birds of paradise (nice 1 drop).

Just curious, but what makes it so that they CAN'T be cut, do you actually own this?
