Thank you again! I did some of the changes suggested, mainly ditched Wind-Scarred Crag for basic lands, removed Goldwarden's Helm, Electrostatic Field and Magnetic Theft for Lightning Helix (A card that I didn't realize existed and fits very well!) and changed around the numbers for other cards. Kept Dueling Rapier since it's good as a flash +2/0 card that costs only one mana, has come in handy in some matches against friends

Nice - the deck definitely looks a lot stronger now after those changes!

My remaining thoughts now are:

• You probably want to go up to 23-24 lands. 21 is quite low and will mean there will be a lot of games where you miss out on your 3rd land-drop. I also think i'd replace Wind-Scarred Crag with basic lands - you already have some good duel lands, and I think a tapped-land will hurt your tempo quite a bit. If you're trying to cut cards for lands, i'd be ditching either Dueling Rapier or Goldwarden's Helm.

• I'd try and swap-out some of your mono-coloured spells in-place of two-coloured options, just so that you're making the absolute most out of General Ferrous Rokiric. In particular Electrostatic Field does almost nothing for you, when you could be running 4 copies of Koll, the Forgemaster instead. I'd also swap out Magnetic Theft for something like Lightning Helix, because none of your equipment is critical enough to warrant this kind of equip-help.

Neat list. Why Armed / Dangerous over Raking Claws maindeck? Is the +1/+1 that impactful compared to cycling?

I'd look at Fly + dungeons as a way to get a little more card advantage and ultility, alternatively Fire Giant's Fury in games that are drawing out. Arm with AEther is a cute trick.

If you want sources of direct damage, Five-Alarm Fire is a cheap lava axe though it prefers going wide, while Ongoing Investigation offers a way to stretch into midrange with an enchantment focus. Flamespeaker's Will is neat artifact removal for the sideboard.

Dueling Rapier offers a more efficient power boost than furor, although it doesn't do double duty as removal.

Dueling Rapier is just better than Scavenged Blade imo

+2 Mace vs. Vulshok Morningstar . Those Vulshok do know how to make a metal whacking stick.

From what I've seen so far, there are very, very few cards that are generic enough to reprint outside of a Forgotten Realms set. Something like Celestial Unicorn or Dueling Rapier could make it out, but this is truly D&D played with cards.
