It's my first attempt at a myr deck so be kind.  There's more powerful Myrs on the way but I wanted to see if I was on the right track.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Are you aiming for something fun, competitive, both?

I would say both.  I do have more {myr galvanizer}s, {myr battlesphere}s and 2 {myr reservoir}s on the way.  So it's not a finished project.  I do want this deck to be competitive.  The more ideas you guys hit me with the better.

{Myr Battlesphere} + {Kessig Wolf Run} = ðŸ'œðŸ˜

Have you considered running U/B Tezzeret Myrs?

Once again - budget limit?

{tempered steel} Myrs?

{tempered steel} is a must for any artifact deck. You are getting tons of 1/1 artifacts out, and the tempered steel will buff all those tiny 1/1s into a scary horde of 3/3s

I also think you need more 2 drop mana myrs. A lot of your current cards are 3+ mana. I would replace the shimmer myrs with mana myrs.

With 2 {Myr Galvanizer}s and a mana producing Myr {Paladium Myr} for example you can get an infinite mana engine combo going.

True, but it does take 4 turns to get to that. Anything you able to do in the first 2 turns? Or just wait for the big guys?

Oh yeah, I love those Myrs! One Myr means nothing! Many Myr ... run for cover, especially when ...

Tempered Steel is definitely a must for Myr/Artifact decks! It turns those annoying little critters into threatening little critters, especially when you have four Tempered's in play!

And yes, mor Galvanizers are almost a must for Myrs. Why leave 4 of a Lord out if they are sooooooo cheap! Even they the infintie mana combo doesn't kick in till 4th go, it doesn't stop kicking in!

I would also recommend {Myr Turbine}, so not only can you keep churning the little critters out, but then you can search for and cheat in a nice fat {Myr Superion}! I do like the look of your Myr deck, but it it a lil loose without these these guys included. Let us know how the deck plays!

Also have a look at these if you're keen for further solid working Myr deck inspiration from the Mods themselves:
Standard: http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php?topic=664.0

Woot for Myrs still going strong!!!

I don't think you're going to find many turn two infinite mana combos in Standard.
