It's still very much a first draft, and I'm sure I could free up some slots. I probably don't need to run all four Tr* Mages, for instance. Mostly I just want this to be a high synergy deck, and not one that goes for combo wins.
Some assorted notes:
My group plays with no general damage and no French ban list. We play with either 40 starting life (free for all or Star) or 60 starting life (Two Headed Giant, be it 2v2 or 2v2v2).
My group frowns upon infinite combos, land destruction, and locks.
I'm a budget player who plays with other budget players, so I'm not interested in buying expensive cards for this deck. I try to keep most cards under two dollars, with only a few in the five dollar range (or more, if it's something I've opened).
I'm only interested in black-bordered, modern frame cards.
Despite sitting on a bunch of artifacts-matter cards for who knows how long, I've never made an artifacts-matter deck. Time to change that!
