I can see that being the right call. Ensoul Artifact is pretty bonkers, especially on Darksteel Citadel.

I'd much rather have Engineered Explosives or Ratchet Bomb than Illness in the Ranks.

I'd make the following changes:

-2 Ensoul Artifact

+2 Thoughtcast

Etched Champion is often better than Master of Etherium, but since you're trying to go as wide as possible with the 4-of Memnite plan, I can see playing Etherium. Steel Overseer shouldn't be overlooked, but I think that's what your Tempered Steels are looking to replicate. Thoughtcast is almost Treasure Cruise. Almost. I'd play a couple. Ensoul is just your weakest card and you don't want multiples.

I'd also change your sideboard quite a bit depending on what you think you'll face. Since Dredge is back in Modern, you have Grafdigger's Cage and Stoney Silence which do a much better job than Relic. Ratchet Bomb can be great against Tokens - might make the cut as a one-of or Whipflare can also be good. Wear/Tear is really nice. Torpor Orb is a solid one-of in the board as is Rule of Law. Leyline of Sanctity against Burn instead of the Circle.

Basically, with your sideboard in Modern, you want it pretty diverse. Any deck can give you a hard time and the answers to them are pretty strong. So, just play the strongest answers and spread things out a bit.

oh man, i nthink you have some good ideas muktidata, but ensoul is just such a powerfull card i cant see cutting down to one. affinity, run by pros, is at 3 ensouls, just because it steals games. im seeing tun 1 vault skirge, turn 2 attatch ensoul artifact, swing 5 gain 5. thats a 4 turn clock at worst, just such a good card
