Too much spell, not enough creature. {Arcbound Ravager} is main board IMO as it makes removal bad and is just such a solid card. I haven't been a fan of {Signal Pest} and this deck doesn't need {Gitaxian Probe} IMO.

With this list I was winning turn 3 😁 I out burned the solid burn decks(tier 1 burn decks that 2 people were playing in the tourney) sacking ornithopters for shrapnel blast and playin 2-3 shrapnel blasts by tappin the opals and leaving a mana floating then dropping another opal to destroy it and shrapnel blasting for 10 in one turn is devastating as well as galvanic blasting anything else it's ridiculous

I feel this is like a perfect ramp for burn by being able to drop a springleaf drum and opals and glimmer post and ornithoper t1 that's 3 mana for burn, I mean I feel like dropping 14 damage t2 should be a bigger thing

Normal affinity can T3 as well. Sounds like it's fun and deadly. No {Welding Jar}? Guess it doesn't fit that well.

Which it plays well as normal affinity, but the tourneys I play are full on burn and they kill my artifacts and instead of wasting a jar for regenerating a orni, Id rather shrapnel blast on the Stack and deal 5

Sounds good to me. I'm just not used to holding mana in affinity. xD
