What's your game plan with this deck? How do you win, and what do you do to get to that point?

Thats partially my problem. Getting back into magic after a long run gone. Main focus of the deck are the etched monstrosities and the darksteel juggernaughts for damage

The etched champions to help hold the line,

Myrs and Solemns to help mana boost and as disposable blockers if needed

Contagion clasp/engine to help with creature control/counter generation on golem foundry and titan forge.

Hex Parasites to remove counters from etched monstrosities if needed

Unwinding clock to help with proliferates and defense

and well omen machine just seemed to fit in this deck as nothing would get wasted by it. Also it could potentially force opponents to play spells prematurely as it makes them use it or lose it.

Why do you have land of every color? While that does make it so that you can use etched monstrosity, it also makes it more probable that your opponent will have a creature that can walk over to strike you. Plus, if you consolidate to one color of land, you can use Caged Sun to increase your mana generation to the point where you don't really need the Omen Machine, which can help your opponents as much as you most of the time. Also, for drawing, if you stick with blue, you can use Tezzeret's gambit which, while only allowing you to draw two cards, allows you to proliferate your foundries a little more. Just a suggestion.

Plus, if you switch out your colored mana myr for myr galvanizers and palladium myr, you can increase your mana generation even more, and use that mana to drop heavies like blightsteel colossus.

Is it sad I've been gone long enough I completely disregarded creatures with landwalk? I'm still on the fence about Omen machine almost feels like a sideboard card. I can see uses for it but I'm scared of the thing lol.

Okay, you just defined what each card does but I'm looking for an overarching plan for the deck as a whole. How do you want to win? What steps do you want your deck to take to win?

Simplest answer is creature damage. Depending on the draw It could come from swarming or from the big heavies.. Like i said a bit unfocused at this point. My biggest worry with this deck is I won't live long enough to pull off the damage
