I'm just getting back into the game after 5 years of almost zero play. I'm trying to figure out what deck I should play so I started brewing and one card really caught my eye Inspiring Statuary. I tried to search for similar decks the search function didn't seem to be working for the new set yet.
I just wanted to get some thoughts on cards that might be interesting to play in my list, and maybe some comments on my card choices. Anything helps.
Aethersphere Harvester and Metallic Mimic were kind of just tossed in there not sure how I feel about them. Harvester can get crewed by the Servos from Cogworker's Puzzleknot and Mimic. Mimic can just name Angle or Servo, but it mainly there for crew cost and Statuary.
Have you considered trying to mash all of that up with a Metalwork Colossus build? I think you'll find similar things are happening between those decks and what you're trying to build.

I've been wanting to try Elder-Deep Fiend with Inspiring Statuary. You can tap an artifact creature and sacrifice it to reduce the cost on the EDF. I don't know that Metallic Mimic fits very well here. The deck isn't aggressive, and doesn't have enough common creature types to make the effect worth it; you might try a different artifact in its place. Other than that, list looks like a good starting point.
Not playing Sram's Expertise in here should be a punishable offense: it gives you three bodies to tap for mana and allows you to play your Inspiring Statuary for free. I'm already getting giddy at the idea of possible dropping a Matter Reshaper or Eternal Scourge off of it.
