I need to cut 11 cards. Help please :)

I have a few ideas on what you can drop, as well as why:

• {Mycosynth Golem} (The only thing this is beneficial for are the Collosus bros, and they seem easy enough to get out with your current lineup)

• {Arcbound Crusher} (A 4 mana 1/1? Ew. Even with his potential, he requires quite a lot more cards to hit the table to be good)

• {Broodstar} (For him to be cost effective, you have to have a lot of crap out. Also, would you rather draw into him? Or a {Blightsteel Collosus}? With him not being an artifact, he's pretty late game. He seems cool, but big papa Blight is actually easier to get out! He's just a fatty, for this spot, {Consecrated Sphinx} would like a word)

• {Voltaic Construct} (What would this be useful for exactly? Unless you really need blockers. I can't seem to find an infinite mana combo)

• {Vedalken Engineer} (A mana rock in this slot would work a lot better, he's just too fragile)

• {Counterspell} (You have 2 listed)

• {Steel Sabotage} (It's cute, but if you need to cut stuff, this is dropped quick)

• {Ponder}, {Serum Visions}, {Thoughtcast} and {Preordain} (Unless you plan on playing 1v1 with this deck, these cards are just too small to run. You need some big nasty card draw effects along the lines of {Mind's Eye}, {Rhystic Study} and {Consecrated Sphinx}. 2 of which are currently included)

• {Shape Anew} (Unless you have a way to stack the crap out of your deck via {Sensei's Divining Top} or {Vampiric Tutor} cards to the top, this is a major shot in the dark)

• {Gauntlet of Power} (can be good for a fat mana rock, but most of your dudes are mud without {Grand Architect})

• {Desertion} (Can be a game changer, but if you need a slot, this card can go)

• {Beacon of Tomorrows} (Doesn't really fit with the theme of the deck. If you want to take more turns, but only want a one of in the slot, {Lighthouse Chronologist} could be your guy for the job! Especially with tutors for {Darksteel Plate})

• {Neurok Stealthsuit} (I can see where you're going with this, but {Swiftfoot Boots} might be a better choice here. The haste is extremely intimidating, especially when a Collosus is wearing them)

• {Concentrate} (Pretty much in the same boat with the smaller card draw effects. Cards like {Mind Spring} and {Brain Geyser} could be better here)

Thank you for such detailed recommendations. Updated my list :))

[InfinitiveDivinity]

No problem man! I run a relatively similar list, I have {Arcum Daggson} at the helm though 😉
I had a very hard time making cuts as well. If you don't have a budget for this baby I can bump my list if you'd like to see it for ideas. It's got some spensive stuff.

[Spencer Addington]

I would love to see your list!

[InfinitiveDivinity]

I would love to see your list!

It's under "Arcum Asylum", it has been bumped 😁

[Spencer Addington]

I am in a rare postition. I'm short 2 cards.. Anyone have suggestions to fill the gap? If not I'll add 2 islands.

[Dudecore]

{Ensoul Artifact} is cool, isn't it? I'd also include {Steel Hellkite} because his 1-sided removal can be a wincon, you can find him with {Treasure Mage} and juice it with {Grand Architect}.

[Spencer Addington]

M15 isn't out yet, so I don't know what ensoul artifact does. I'll definitely add the dragon!

Card Name: Ensoul Artifact
Mana Cost: {1}{U}
Converted Mana Cost : {2}
Types:  Enchantment — Aura
Card Text:
Enchant artifact
Enchanted artifact is a creature with base power and toughness 5/5 in addition to its other types.

[Spencer Addington]

If I turn a land into an artifact(via {liquimetal coating}), does the enchantment fall off at the end of my turn when it's no longer an artifact?
