Voltaic + rings + Everflowing Chalice (4 counters) =
Scrap Trawler + Myr Retriever + Krark-Clan Ironworks + Sol Ring + Junk Diver - Combo
Scrap Trawler + Sculpting Steel + Krark-Clan Ironworks + Foundry Inspector - Combo
Blinkmoth Urn = Ramp, add Blinkmoth Well to make this asymmetrical + politics (which also is synergy with winter orb)
Karn, Legacy Reforged - Ramp
Have you thought of swapping out Void Winnower for Emrakul, the Promised End? Given you're in colorless, it can be hard to interact with the board at times. Emmy is a powerhouse which can potential be cheaper to cast that Void, not to mention it's potentially high ceiling. To sweeten the pot, Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant is synergy with it and helpful on it's own given your potential for over-extending (assuming no flash enabler).
Phyrexia's Core > Treasure vault(?) - Core acts as a sac outlet to prevent artifact theft, exile and most importantly, remove The One Ring. Ironworks is the only other card that can remove it. Having another card (a land which can be tutored for) is an additional form of redundancy that you might find more useful than treasure vault if you meta is on the more competitive side.
Potential cuts....
- Blast Zone - Too slow, especially for potential higher powered or cEDH games.
- God-Pharaoh's Statue - Unless you ramp into it, it's not that impactful. Given you already have a lot of redundancy, this is your weakest card in the deck IMO. You could potentially swap it out for another control card such as Ward of Bones but you're better off lowering the avg cmc of the deck.
Very solid deck and low avg cmc, great job

Blinkmoth Well - Synergy with blinkmoth urn + politics
Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant - To recover after a wipe.
Mystic Forge - "Draw"
Although not on theme, given the lack of draw, perhaps a Kozilek, the Great Distortion?

I think it's a great first start jake1511. Nice avg cmc of 3.52. You might want to increase the speed a tad but given it's a colorless deck that's easier said than done.
Howling Mine - Without a way to untap, it provides opponents more advantage. I understand you need draw, but IMO, this isn't the way to do it
Lithoform Engine - Winmore
Mirror Shield - IMO hexproof redundancy is not needed, other ability is not typically useful. Really depends on how much redundancy you need
Pariah's Shield - I don't see a synergy. Put it on your commander and hope it tanks the damage? 8 mana total is steep
Portal to Phyrexia - Way too costly for what it does.
Ratchet Bomb - Depends on how often you actually can find it useful. Usually charging it for a few turns hoping to get the right amount of counters is difficult.
Shield of Kaldra - Without other Kalrdra, this isn't helpful enough
Sword of Hours - This is not a 1/1 counter deck
The Immortal Sun - Anti-synergy with 3 of your walkers, potentially swap for Staff of Nin for similar effect without anti-synergy
Trading Post - I like the saccing artifacts to draw, making tokens in a pinch. Just doesn't feel like it does enough
Vexing Puzzlebox - Mana rock for 3cmc with a unlikely ability to reliably use
Vorrac Battlehorns - Unimpactful
Aladdin's Lamp - WAY too costly
Anduril, Flame of the West - No benefit to use tokens, aside from skullclamp maybe
Azor's Gateway - Hoping this goes 5 turns uninterrupted is a big ask
Brass Knuckles - Kind of cool but not good on it's own. I do sort of like it, plus the art
Golem-Skin Gauntlets - Kind of cool, but not good on it's own.
Basalt Monolith - Ramp + Combo with Forsaken Monument for
Cloud Key/Semblance Anvil - Ramp
Sensei's Divining Top - Dig
Cloud Key/Anvil/Artifact cost Reducer + Mystic Forge + Top = Draw your entire deck
Expedition Map - Find the land you need, ensure you get your land drop.
Might want to add 1-2 more lands depends on your ending avg cmc and amount of rocks + personal playstyle.
Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant - Recover from a boardwipe
Darksteel Citadel - Artifact land for Karn
Mycosynth Lattice - Lots of shenanigans, super double edged sword.
Lattice + Karn, the Great Creator = Hard lock. Karn has a lot of useful abilities on his own, ignoring lattice.

Junjun1216 +1
Blinkmoth Well - Synergy with blinkmoth well + interaction
High Market > Gallifrey Council Chamber - Same tapland argument as above. You mention you wanted a way to destroy your commander to destroy more cards, this does that easily, with a sprinkle of light. It is also synergystic with Klayer of loyalties and even wurmcoil engine.
Maybe Phyrexia's Core - High market for artifacts/Sac outlet for Mana vault, blinkmoth urn and the one ring. Also prevents artifact theft.
Sanctum of Eternity > Zhalfrin Void - Synergy
What does Vesuva copy, an opposing Cabal Coffers? Another card to potentially add is Thespian's Stage, perhaps for The Grey Havens? Seems unimpactful. You mention you want a lot of ramp and it's a early-mid game deck but these tap lands (particularly Havens) seems to go against that. Do they really warrant an inclusion/provide that much benefit to the deck?
Karn, the Great Creator > Portal to Phyrexia - Portal costs 9 mana and IMO, doesn't provide that much impact. It needs to survive a turn to be able to provide value which doesn't always happen. How has your experience been with it? Karn is great because 1) 1 sided null rod to slow down faster decks for when you don't have ramp early game 2) Animate opposing artifacts to eventually remove + politics, 3) Recursion for the exiled artifacts that buried ruin can't recur. Not to mention it's cmc is much lower. Would love your thoughts.
Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant - Synergy with Emrakul + mass recursion for artifacts get destroyed from a wipe. Anti synergy with your extra turn card.
How has The One Ring been playing for you? I see only Kuldotha Foremaster to remove it should it deal too much lifeloss to you.
I disagree yet respect your decision to exclude rings, I understand it's not what you're going for. A quick note, in your description, you mention it combos with manifold/voltaic key, however, it only combos with voltaic given manifold states another artifact, not allowing you to untap it with rings. Not that it matters given you're not running it but good to note. I do think that you should definitely test rings a lot and see if it eventually warrants an inclusion.
This is a great deck, I love Kozilek Distortion and have always wanted to build a deck around him. I look forward to your response to each suggestion.

Buried Ruin - Recursion
Sanctum of Ugin - Tutor
Basalt Monolith + Forsaken monument =
Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant + Emrakul = Good synergy. Hourglass helps with recursion from a vandablast.
Maybe a Vedalken Orrery/Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter/Skittering Cicada for flash so you don't overextend as easily? Colorless decks almost always have high cmc and lots of artifacts so any opponent worth their salt after a few games should recognize this and adjust their plan. This helps keep them guessing. Not necessary but nice to have.
Rings of Brighthearth + Basalt Monolith + 2 mana = + top = Cast your entire deck
Rings + Voltaic Key (swap out manifold) + everflowing chalice (4 counters) =
Metalworker + Rings + Voltaic key =
Card Draw - Colorless doesn't have too much, you already run both kozileks which is great. Commander is a value engine which is nice. You could add a Staff of Nin for more but IMO it's not needed. How do you feel your card situation is?
Removal - Colorless has expensive removal options, you have all the good ones. Everything seems solid.
Mana Curve - A bit high but understandable for a colorless deck, especially with your commander. You could add more ramp should you feel you need. I usually recommend the most ramp in Kozilek commander decks because your commander is a draw source but here I'm unsure. Your ramp seems sufficient, how do you feel?

Affinity for Rubber Chickens (Chiss-Goria EDH)

Mystic Forge + Top + artifact cost reducer = Draw your deck. Forge is great "draw" so to speak as well.
Ugin, the Ineffable - "Draw", removal and ramp
Buried Ruin/Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant - Recursion
Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter/Vedalken Orrery - Flash. Might be anti-synergstic with the haste commander but mitigates over-extending and allows your "trigger each turn" card to trigger more often. Plus, isn't it cool to be like the blue player?
Maybe Strionic Resonator - Double attack and ETB's, also note Lithoform Engine for flexibility

Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant + Emrakul, the Promised End = Fun times

Cursed Totem has anti-synergy with 8 of your creatures, how has it been working for you?

Liberator of Cinnamon Rings

Sanctum of Ugin - Tutor
Eye of Ugin - Tutor + Ramp
Buried Ruin - Recursion
Mystic forge + Sensei's Divining Top + artifact cost reducer = draw your whole deck
Basalt Monolith + forsaken monument =
Rings of Brighthearth + basalt + 2 mana = + top = draw + cast your entire deck
Rings + voltaic key + Everflowing Chalice (4 counters) =
Metal worker + voltaic key + rings =
Scorched Ruins + Rings + Deserted Temple = . Temple has the added benefit of politics or ramp with urza land.
Emrakul, the Promised End + Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant = Strong synergy, each piece is good on it's like (like many of the combos I've listed)
Karn, the Great Creator + lattice = Hard lock
To synergize with darksteel monolith, you could add some flash (which also has the added benefit of limiting your overextension into a boardwipe) such as Vedalken Orrery/Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter/Skittering Cicada
Blinkmoth Well + Blinkmoth Urn = One sided ramp. Well can deal with opposing artifacts and urn always makes you ahead. Should you feel inclined, Winter Orb might be worth it (if you don't like friends) as you can break parity with it. Even if you can't, you use primarily artifact ramp anyways. It can help slow down the faster pace decks.
