One of my game stores, as well as SCG & Card Titans, like to hold No Ban List Modern. I thought about Eldrazi but I like affinity more. The artifact lands, Disciple of the Vault and Second Sunrise. So I thought about a Affinity aggro/burn deck like it was in 2004. Here's what I've been thinking of.
The idea should be visible, burn/damage as fast as possible, use Second Sunrise to help with OTK. Trying to get a good balance of lands so I can not get stuck with too much of one color. Threw in some uber drawing with Reverse & Thought and Skullclamp. However, I think I COULD drop the Skullclamps for Reverse Engineering and Frogmite. Not sure.
Skullclamp is ban for a reason, is really good. I would keep that in mind when putting creatures into the deck, as it makes things like memnite much better. Arcbound worker is probably better as a vault skirge unless you want to try to get into some shenanigans with cards like Hangerback Walkerm, which works very well with skullclamp and arcbound ravanger. Atog,second sunrise and reverse engineer dont seem too strong in a no ban environment. You also might want to add Blinkmouth Nexus instead of darksteel or glimmervoid. Something real cool about skullclamp is it being such a powerful draw engine it allows you to play with less lands.
I would start with something around those lines and then maybe add 2-3 Myr Enforcer and substitute something for Vault Skirge as both an evasive beater with Plating and a 1-toughness creature to feed Clamp.
