I'm not seeing the point of Syndicate Trafficker. Sure it's aetherborn, but you don't have enough artifacts to really get any use out of it. Ironclad Revolutionary is the same. Maybe if you nixed some of the weaker aetherborn, you could invest in more artifacts?

You get five likes, your deck goes from being basically invisible to being right on the front page -- activity tends to skyrocket, since most people don't use the other tabs. I'm going through and liking lots of new decks to try and get the front page moving again. I suggest other people do the same. :)
Aaaaw yeah, punched something onto the front page. Good luck, l'il deck.
I'd probably add one more blowfly infestation, and 3x puncture bolt
I'd probably get rid of both instants - they're designed for Infect decks, and this is much more about wither. Splitting your focus like that will make it inconsistent. If you're gonna have instants, simple removal is probably better.
No blowfly infestation? It can get off ridiculous board-clearing stuff if used correctly.
Pariah might be a fun addition.
Have you considered Assault Strobe? It gives you crazy mileage from creatures like the Swiftspear.I think the issue is that it's a bit slow - your instants can only hold back the tide so long. Maybe consider some beefier cheapies like Mage-Ring Bully and Kiln Fiend? They're usually pretty weak cards but with the with U/R setup they can really put the hurt on. Finally, Jhessian Thief is INCREDIBLE considering how $$$ cheap it is.
Seems a little too creature heavy. Could be very effective but you might want to take advantage of some of the awesome R/B removal tools like Terminate and Dreadbore. Lightning Helix might also be a fun addition.
Assault Strobe might be better than Temur Battle Rage? Considering how tight mana is gonna be here, {1} could make all the difference.
Thank you! I couldn't fit the enchantment creatures in there, but I've taken out some of the weaker enchantments are replaced them with the instants you suggested.
Sneak Attack > Through the Breach here, since you don't have any arcane spells to splice onto. Does the same job, except it's an enchantment that costs {r} to use.
Guard Gomazoa? It's like a beefed-up fogbank, and it would get some more blue into the mix.
re white not having any good cheap generals, while this is true, they do have one of the BEST cheap EDH generals: Isamaru, Hound of Konda. I've seen some truly brutal white artifact decks based around him.
oh also, Aether Tradewinds (the AE is one of those weird smashed-together ones that's hard to search for. It's a Blue CMC3 instant from Worldwake) and Evacuation. Stuff that hits both players will be really useful here because it lets you get off your abilities, but it also slows them down.
Equilibrium? It's more reliable bounce and can also be used against opponents. Maybe Sunken Hope? A bounce enchantment would also help you get PS out faster.
Do you mean Ballad? Ballard isn't a word.
Something like Jace's Erasure is needed here: something to put a timer on your opponent. The little chippy mill cards that hit every turn can be just as deadly as the big expensive ones. Personally, I'd nuke the grindclock for a set of erasures.
Roaring Primox? Might be nice to be able to perma-bounce the 'comes into play' effects.
I'm not sure cultivate or boundless realms are actually that useful for you, since they specify basic lands and you only have 8 of those.
