The idea with the deck was to play cards that cannot be efficiently answered. If opponent spends 3-4 mana to clean up tokens generated from my spell costing {R} thats enough of a win for me, to be worth it.

Thats why you can observe an utter lack of creatures without relevant triggered abilities in the deck. Bedlam Reveler is a "draw 3" card that dodges Force of Negation, which sometimes also endd up becoming a sizeable attacker - but thats just a bonus. Same goes for Clockwork Percussionist. Its mainly there to act as copies 5, 6, 7, 8 of Experimental Synthesizer

...well sweepers aint bad, as opponent tapping out for a sweeper means no Flare of Denial, and allows me to deal damage directly to face.



And well leyline of combustion is much more than just "possible tech against bowmasters, lava dart, W6".
For decks that can burn out the opponent, its one of the most universal hatecards.
It hits lots of combo decks, and pretty much all non-counterspell interactons.
Good against mill.
Good against targeted discard
Good against prowess, burn, phoenix
Often deals significant damage to unexpected players running Mishra's Bauble
Protect from opposing land destruction in eldrazi decks
Punishes activation of lotsa walkers
Creates downsides for enchantment based removal spells

Hello, i just wanna chime in, about the tension that seems to exist in your deck between the "destroy artifact for value" and "care about number of artifacts in play" effects.

Gleeful Demolition goes well with the multitude of old and new "gains value on sacrifice" artifacts, like Clockwork Percussionist, Experimental Synthesizer, and Ichor Wellspring.
And it makes possible to run Kuldotha Rebirth, and Shrapnel Blast.
...when/if Orcish Bowmasters are present in numbers, being able to exile cards to cast from exile instead of drawing em can be relevant (for whatever it is worth).

And imho MHayashi is onto the correct idea with land destruction decks in modern.
Its best to build them with playset of Demolition Field and Field of Ruin, with 1-2 playset of best spell based land destruction in addition to that.
Using your land to remove opponent's land leaves you with more slots for spells in your deck, compared to using sorceries to destroy lands.



On the off chance you are interested in checking out my list, here is a link: Gleeful Reveler 2024 dec


P.s.: I disagree with your take on Rise and Shine (and awaken mechanic in general), those cards are THE reason to splash blue in artifact deck.

This look like a very fun and aggressive deck. The mana cost is so low i am thinking 20 lands. Lots of people use the Heartfire Hero also. I really like the Clockwork Percussionist. good luck!
