{Sun titan} seems like a waste here Since he can't bring back creatures like the simulacrum, have you thought about {mirran crusaders} or {etched champion}? I would also put in {ponder} and {dispatch} to help keep things running smoothly and maybe a {trinket Mage} or two and a {signal pest} for evasion and working metalcraft. I'd probably take out {silver skin armor} because it doesn't seem necessary. The swiftfoot boots are cool but I'm not sure they are completely necessary either since you want to be hitting with your swords and daggers and the cleavers as fast as you can so you'll want to be able to pull those out of the deck fast. The {faith's shield} probably won't be really necessary here since most of your creatures have hex proof or protection with the swords. I would up the dagger count from 3 to 4 because they really are amazing as an equipment on the stalker. I would also remove the simulacrum since its sort of an odd card to use in a deck like this, it isn't very aggressive and you're going to need aggressive creatures FAST

Sagemaster

Also replace solemn with forbidden alchemy :D because you do have sun Titan to bring back whatever goes to the graveyard

Validan

Only thing is I think you want to be attacking way before sun Titan even comes out

True but you may need to block or hold off an attack and I use a deck very similar to this, I usually pull out sun Titan if I draw him

Validan

Hmm in my puresteel I usually race people to win with an invisible stalker with some equips, I've never tried it with the Titan before though

Denni

Hmm have to give this all some thought. {suntitan} is there to bring stugf back so i can block with them without concern. The {Swiftfoot boots} are to use {suntitan} effect twice the turn it comes in play.

I got all the cards from my 4x puresteel 4x stonforge deck, shame i cant play that in standard

Validan

I played a bit with {stone forge mystic} and it definitely makes a difference, with {ponder} though it gets things moving faster. If you're just bringing things back with {sun Titan} for fodder then why not put in some creatures that would benefit you more when they block? Or with {mortapod} are sacrificed?
