This deck won 2 of 2 matches last night against Mono-Red Hollowed One and Simic Snow.
In the first match, the deck drew poorly and was little more than land until the end. The group play brought everyones life total below 10, and I finally landed a pathetic 4/4 Goldvein Hydra on my second to last turn to bring the Hollowed One's pilot down to 2 life. He then killed off the Simic Snow deck and tried to kill me, but I Fogged him and was able to hit with my Hydra for his final 2 life.
In the second match, the deck drew much better, but suffered as the Hollowed One deck forced us to discard at random, sending my Mind Spring to the graveyard one turn before I was going to cast it for a minimum of 10 cards. Simic Snow was a threat, but it was mostly focused on the explosive threat the Hollowed One deck was putting forward. Still, I had the lowest life - 4 - (vs Hollowed One at 10 and Simic Snow at 16) when I was able to cast a Hydroid Krasis for 14x and Unbound Flourishing doubled it to 28, drawing me 14 cards (I already had a Reliquary Tower in play) and bringing my life total back up to 18. By the time my next turn rolled around, Simic Snow had all but one Island tapped and 1 card in their hand and Hollowed One had no way to counter, so I cautiously used just enough mana to cast an Exsanguinate for lethal while keeping enough mana left over to cast a Goldvein Hydra as a backup threat just in case Simic Snow had a counter spell. But they didn't and Exsanguinate killed both opponents.
Overall, both Simic Snow and Hollowed One played very fast, aggressive threats. Hollowed One managed to get a Marauding Mako to a 6/6 and land a Hollow One on turn 3 in both games. Simic Snow had two 9/9 Abominable Treefolk on turn 5 in game two and 5/5 on turn 3 in game one. For this deck to eek out 2 wins in a row was quite a feat!

CNG_Stream I wasn't too sure about the ruling when Goldvein Hydra came up on Scryfall, and he has some good synergy. Thanks for that! The vigilance angle came about from the Gingerbrute requiring tap to sacrifice. The added advantage it has for the Brightglass Gearhulk is more utility. Kor Halberd is definitely going in, I'll test with 2 Tarrian's Soulcleaver before I consider scrapping it completely. Soulcleaver is rather bad for the smaller creatures because if they die, I get nothing. On the Gearhulk, it becomes a pain to get rid of. I forgot Basilisk Collar was in standard, I'll add to the maybeboard.
Regarding a more enchantment based strategy, I did consider that idea with Ordeal of Nylea for land filtering and Audacity and Ethereal Armor, and my creatures would probably be more lifegain centered with Authority of the Consuls in standard, like Ruin-Lurker Bat. I run a Commander spirit enchantment deck, and as much as I love running enchantments, I wanted to try something different.

Considering your equipment are both legendary, I am not sure you want to run 4 copies of each. In particualr I do not see the value of 4 copies of Tarrian's Soulcleaver as you are not doing anything that particularly helps this card grow your creatures a significant deal. I think the Basilisk Collar might be a more useful equipment if you wnat a utility equipment, but if you really want the vigilance then I would suggest Kor Halberd as it gives you a +1/+1 by default. Making sure to suggest equipment that are still one drops due to you building around the gearhulk.
Sadly there is not All That Glitters style of card in standard for this idea, but the gearhulk does search for enchantments as well. So cards like Ethereal Armor and Shardmage's Rescue are probably a really good cards to consider for this deck if you decide to shift to enchantment synergies instead of equip. Considering the Gearhulk gets to search 2 cards, the idea of the Shardmage's Rescue seems like a great include as it gives you a protection spell you can search for along with 1 other card. This also means you cna shift into using cards like Optimistic Scavenger as a good 1 drop to search for as well, but that might be a different idea if you want to try that as it would focus more on enchantments.
Lastly you might want to consider Goldvein Hydra. This spell counts as a 1 cost while in deck, meaning that if you can search out this X power vigilance, haste, trample creature at anytime and even get 2 of them so when the first bites it, you can spend all the treasures made from it to power up the second.
