Why not use Cockatrice? It's a very good and safe free Magic the Gathering program you can play people online with, though to tell you the truth I've never used untap.in so I don't know if it's better or not.

I feel like Mirri's Guile should be cut for Ancestral Mask. It functions just like a Sensei's Divining Top and Sylvan Library minus the card draw.
How about Ancestral Mask and Sage's Reverie? They would be devastating alongside Ethereal Armor. Spectra Ward would also be a huge bomb keeping the auras already on Uril and now being able to swing with almost nothing coming in the way. Celestial Mantle is another great aura though expensive in mana cost, but a bomb nonetheless that can really just diminish any chances of your opponent winning when your attack gets through, and has saved me many times.
Thank you for the compliment! I really like your deck as well, we do have some differences there. I just wish I could fit so much more in this deck like some of the cards you included in yours, but 99 is the limit sadly.
So since this deck has no care for budget why not throw in Tarmogoyf since he'll get buffed by Doran?
The thing about Polukranos, World Eater is how impactful he is. He is an immediate target for players to throw their kill spells at because he can get out of control, and people run playsets of him because once the first one leaves, another one comes down that the opponent has to deal with. Problem with Karametra's Acolyte unfortunately is her mana cost, while she can produce a ton of mana, turn four or even three there are other more impactful cards that can hit the board rather than more ramp. Thanks for the reccommendations though.
Put Life's Legacy back, I wanted to test out to see how the deck would run with more threats, but I found myself in need of card advantage.
Glad to help in any way. Really want to see more decks like this instead of the typical metagame decks that are boring to play with and against
Well the thing is Shrapnel Blast is this deck's best potential removal spell. With so many artifacts to target, casting it is not difficult. It's 5 damage that can be dealt straight to the opponent or to one of their big creatures, not to mention its synergy with Scuttling Doom Engine and Soul of New Phyrexia.
Problem is that removal is hard for Blue and Red. For Blue we have Rapid Hybridization but that's going out soon, and Red's burns just miss so many targets in Standard. With Mizzium Mortars rotating out Red is losing its range. Lightning Strike's miss Courser of Kruphix, Polukranos, Stormbreath Dragon, Desecration Demon/Master of the Feast. Unless you're playing burn removal is hard for these kind of decks, so we have to take different approaches.
In that case, Haunted Plate Mail would be a great card for this deck. It can be a 4/4 body to block and/or attack when you have no other creatures. It can equip to your Ornithopters to make them 4/6 Flyers or even make them 9/9 Flyers if you have Ensoul Artifact on them. You can equip it to make your Ensoul Artifact-ed Darksteel Citadels into 9/9's with indestructible, your Soul of New Phyrexia into a 10/10 with trample! It's such a good card for the deck that I'd highly recommend.
Actually if you're looking more into the Cirlce of Flame/Polymorphist's Jest combo, a great card that can be used alongside them that also gives you draw power is Bident of Thassa. For two mana you can force your opponent's creatures to attack, and whenever you deal damage with a creature you draw a card, not to mention it's also an Artifact that you can sacrifice to Shrapnel Blast and enchant with Ensoul Artifact.
No not at all, I like it. The Cirlce of Flame/Polymorphist's Jest combo is great, but doesn't exactly hit everything. I use it too, but I sideboard it so I can put them in game two and/or three if I'm versing a deck that they're better suited for.
A lot of people are trying to make Artifacts a thing in Standard, me included. If I had to say a few things it would be that Circle of Flame and Polymorphist's Jest are more sideboard cards as they don't have a lot of guaranteed reach, you'd usually board them in for game two and/or three depending on what you're playing against. Dissipate, Divination, and Void Snare are good cards, but those slots could be used a bit more productively to make your way for your bigger creatures, and could even be replaced with cards that would make your creatures much bigger threats like Haunted Plate Mail.http://www.mtgvault.com/alayjo95/decks/rug-artifacts/Here's a list of an Artifact deck I've been working on, it's more heavily centered on R/G with a splash of U, but there are some things in it that you may want to consider, heck maybe we can even help each other with our decks.
I think he didn't put Stomping Grounds because of budget issues and/or because they are rotating out of Standard soon.
Such an evil deck. I think I'd flip my table if I went up against this deck, but nice use of Waste Not.
I made some new changes to the deck that really has made it a lot faster. Thanks for the advice. http://www.mtgvault.com/alayjo95/decks/rug-artifacts/Here's the new link in case you have any more advice.
I'm actually thinking about scrapping the Chief Engineer, and having 4 Elvish Mystics and 3 Sylvan Caryatids or 4 Sylvan Caryatids and 3 Elvish Mystics. The Caryatids fit a bit more in this deck because of the access to the 3 colors I need for the deck.
Seeing all the U/R Artifact decks everywhere, never did I think I'd see a G/R Artifact deck. It's got a lot of stuff that the U/R deck couldn't do! I tried to take elements from your deck and the U/R decks going around and tried to combine the best of both worlds.http://www.mtgvault.com/alayjo95/decks/rugrats-minus-the-rats/
Yeah thanks a lot for the suggestion, I elected to take out Vengeful Pharaoh for a playset of Putrid Imps like you suggested. Vengeful Pharaoh just did not add much to the deck (I have enough kill spells already) and Putrid Imps allows me to discard on my opponent's turns since Madness can be used at instant speed.
