Override
Instant
Counter target spell unless its controller pays (1) for each artifact you control.

I like this idea a lot. Some ideas to help you out. Lay of the Land for some cheap basic land retrieval. Vedalken Shackles for a new way to steal creatures, but only if you have a good Island base. With the number of artifacts you have and need a counterspell aside from...well Counterspell I recommend Assert Authority or Override. Finally with the number of instants and sorceries I recommend Primal Amulet Flip, get it to flip and you can copy a lot of your powerful instants and sorceries.

Love the deck. One thing you should check out is Override its a good counter spell if you have artifacts on the field. Hope this helps.

EHeroRedEyes Thanks for the view.
I hadnt really thought about anything for this deck yet.. lol.. Sort of just through it together from stuff I already had. But when I played it, I found it was fun. So started getting serious about it.
Looked at Thoughtcast and Override, but I feel like Counterspell is just as effective without having to have any artifacts in play. If someone used a Nev's Disc or something, I want to still be able to counter a spell.
Thoughtcast as well, didnt really seem necessary. From the playtesting I have done with this deck, I am not really hurting for cards, and if I am, I should be pulling them off the top of other players libraries. As it is, I think I am taking out Borrowing 100,000 Arrows. I found with Rhystic Study, Augury Adept, Coastal Piracy, Last Thoughts and my commander. There are enough ways for me to fill my hand.
Thanks again for your comment, and feel free to may other suggests.

Breya Goddess of Etherium (Budget)

Play tested my deck today. Got a T4 win and a T4 loss lol both against a no-budget Yidris doomsday storm deck which ran Lion's Eye Diamond and Mox Diamond to name a few.
First game I had a Grand Architect, Inventors' Fair, and Demonic Tutor in my opening hand. T2 tutored for Pili-Pala, T3 Grand Architect, t4 Pili-Pala turning it blue and created infinite mana to dome my opponent by repeatably sacing Breya + a thopter over and over. The second game I had to mulligan several times and mostly drew lands and Worldgorger Dragon, no tutors no nothing. Pitched Dispatch in hopes of getting anything decent and that was the mistake. T4 he spot removed Breya guaranteeing a hit and after playing solitaire for 10 minutes he brought the storm count to 18+ enough to kill me via Tendrils of Agony.
Conclusions:
This is mostly for me: Worldgorger Dragon + Animate Dead combo is out. Without reliable discard Worldgorger Dragon is a dead card in hand. It's not synergistic since neither are artifacts and both aren't very tutorable.
Tutors are beautiful and a must as we discussed before.
Probably could use more counters/removal. Honestly did not have a whole lot of blue mana available with lands to run counters. Override may be decent, or counters with alternative costs like Foil or Thwart (but not these two particular ones for obvious reasons).
Probably could take out most other high CMC 3 card combos like Sharuum. Magister Sphinx I feel may still be worth the spot because one ETB trigger is enough to almost kill an opponent (a mini Sorin). Breya is our most vital combo piece and any combo involving her is more reliable. This would also lower the curve.
Ethersworn Canonist is lovely against storm decks... wished I drew her lol.

Can't we just let Bygone's be Artifacts?

Are some suggestions I can think off the top of my head that can help with your token buildup and some draw mechanics as well. You can do some tutoring with Fabricate, Override for some counter, Thoughtcast that can be a 1 cost for 2 card draw. Ensoul Artifact to make your 0 cost thopters into 5/5 or even make your Darksteel Citadel an indestructible 5/5 if needed or still produce mana.
This is of course if you do plan to keep it modern.
