I wanted a deck based on Joven. What's unique or cool about him? Well, he has a friend who plays in a popular tv serie, but besides that the only thing that stands out is a hatred of noncreature artifacts.
So I build this deck to be the Artifact's Bane. It's full of artifact destruction. There are also a lot of artifacts in the deck, because Joven is quite the opportunist. Luckily most of them either can't be destroyed or have a benefit when they leave the battlefield.
I also included his tools. Too bad his Ferrets don't like the smell of metal burning
I love it! I'm glad you made this to follow-up your Chandler deck. One thing I could say, since you have Darksteel Reactor already, is why not run Dismantle? It destroys artifacts, and also functions as the combo out with Reactor.
You can also run Mirrodin's Core replacing a Mountain. I suggest this, because your Power Conduit can move counters from that, onto the Reactor itself.

I remember your reaction from the last time I put a Reactor in. Look again, the Dismantle is already in
The Core is a good idea, I'll stick one in right away!
During my youth during Mirroden-Era standard, I had a deck with Ion Storm, Darksteel Reactor and Dismantle. I played Talon of Pain in the deck and found that it was a ridiculously fun combo with these cards: When you remove a counter with Ion Storm to shock somebody, you get 2 counters on Talon of pain! You never run out of counters! Half the time it was better to dismantle my talon of pain then my darksteel reactor, because I would get even more counters from the mantel!
Seems like Sun Droplet would be an great source of charge counters as well.
Also, any current counter loving artifact deck is gonna benefit from proliferate cards like contagion clasp and contagion engine. I know these cards didn't exist when this deck was posted, but what about an update.
Finally, what about a few more men like Manic Vandal or Oxidda Scrapmelter? Wouldn't they be less likely to be dead if your opponent didn't have viable targets?
Great deck, though, it brings back some fond memories!
I am petitioning for the removal of mythic rarity. Sig this to join the cause!

Ahh, didn't catch it until now. Awesome. The combo is cool until someone casts an Echoing Truth on it(believe me, I've had that happen before <_<).

I did include a Shunt and Wild Ricochet for those cases

Also, any artifact-hating deck full of artifacts may want to at least consider Furnace Dragon.
Finally, Ion Storm might have potential with all those counters to play with.
Fun fact: Did you know Joven plays bass in a KISS tribute band?
Elixir, Dragon and Storm are now in
Too bad that all "Kiss" cards aren't red. Kiss of Death, Kiss of the Amesha, Nature's Kiss and Soul Kiss all don't qualify...:)
