Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

I am trying to build a fun casual budget deck under $20 based on equipping Kor soldiers. I'd appreciate a few pointers on improvement.

Deck discussion for Equipment Beat Down

*like*
I would sideboard "Journey to Nowhere" and remove "Oblivion Ring" to get 4 more equipments into the deck. Equipment decks normally try to be rather fast, and adding control.cards only slows them down. Furthermore there is a high chance of having to many creatures, who wants to get equipped, on your hand, but not enough equipment.
Stock up and sideboard "Journey to Nowhere" and take a look at "Dispatch" wich might be a good replacement for it.

Some suggestions, based on my monoW Kor equipment deck (http://www.mtgvault.com/muktol/decks/monow-kor-equipment/) and my monoW pauper equipment deck (http://www.mtgvault.com/muktol/decks/monow-pauper-equipment-2/)
Cranial Plating ({2}; {1} to equip; Equipped creature gets +1/+0 for each artifact you control), Swiftfoot Boots ({2}; {1} to equip; Equipped creature has hexproof and haste), Infiltration Lens ({1}; {1} to equip; Whenever equipped creature becomes blocked by a creature, you may draw two cards), Vorrac Battlehorns ({2}; {1} to equip; Equipped creature has trample and can't be blocked by more than one creature), Sylvok Lifestaff ({1}; {1} to equip; Equipped creature gets +1/+0. Whenever equipped creature is put into a graveyard, you gain 3 life), Leonin Scimitar ({1}; {1} to equip; Equipped creature gets +1/+1)
Ornithopter ({0}; Artifact Creature; 0/2; flying)

Greetings

Thanks a ton for the input, it's much appreciated. I actually own play-sets of dispatch, ornithopter, journey to nowhere, and infiltration lens so it will be easy to add them to the deck. Thanks for not suggesting Stoneforge Mystic by the way. I was also thinking that there were too many creatures but I wasn't too sure what to get rid of.

Some equipments I first wanted to suggest (and then looked at the price) and "Stoneforge Mystic" are way beond the targeted budget ;)

I would remove "Kor Outfitter" as most of your equipment (save the new "Ogre's Cleave") has equip-costs that are lower or cost the same as the play-costs from the Outfiter. And with a single "Puresteel Paladin" on the field they will be gone completely.
If you want to go for "Cranial Plating" the I would furthermore change from "Kitesail Apprentice" to "Ornithopter"

What would you suggest I switch the Kor Outfitters for?

Depends if you increase the number of equipments with high equip-costs like "Ogre's Cleaver". If you add 2-4 (or more) of this kind then it could be good to keep them. If you only have equipments with cc1-2 equip-costs then I would take them out.
