Tarrian's Soulcleaver

Legendary Artifact — Equipment

Equipped creature has vigilance

Whenever another artifact or creature is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, put a +1/+1 counter on equipped creature.

Equip (: Attach this to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This enters the battlefield unattached and stays on the battlefield if the creature this card is attached to leaves the battlefield.)

You might be interested in Tarrian's Soulcleaver. You mentioned giving Mag vigilance before wiping during an attack. Cleaver is the perfect weapon for that.

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.

Cool deck. Personally I would make these swaps:

Wrath of God -> Rosie Cotton of South Lane
Mikaeus, the Lunarch -> Extruder
Oltec Matterweaver -> Blade of the Bloodchief
Ojer Axonil, Deepest Might -> Lightning Greaves
Siege Veteran -> Idol of Oblivion
Panharmonicon -> Tarrian's Soulcleaver
Soul Warden -> Guide of Souls

Bitterblossom

Prosperous Innkeeper

Song of the Dryads

Chitterspitter

Cauldron Familiar (unless I am missing the combo piece for it in the list)

Craterhoof Behemoth: may be a bit win more. don't see it doing much

Gala Greeters: meh card

Gilded Goose: meh

Tireless Provisioner: could stay or go

Toski, Bearer of Secrets: don't know how aggro this deck is, seems more combo oriented

Damnation: probably between MHM and fallout you have enough wipes

Nature's Claim: good removal but probably good on that

Woe Strider probably fine on sac outlets

May consider Protean Hulk piles as well

I should probably slot in Heroic Intervention. The nice thing about this deck is that even if a combo piece is destroyed, it's fairly easy to recur it thanks to Glissa, the Traitor. And I'm running Foundry Inspector as my primary cost reduction. I could probably add in Cloud Key for some redundancy. I've actually tried Semblance Anvil before, and I just wasn't as big a fan of it.

Deathsprout I can cut. Probably to add in some more reliable ramp or removal.

Phyrexian Fleshgorger is a remnant of when I was running a Birthing Pod/Dross Scorpion combo chain in the deck, since I needed a good seven drop that could either be a threat or fodder. With cards like Cranial Plating or Tarrian's Soulcleaver, it can get stupid big and really hard to interact with short of a boardwipe.

Portal to Phyrexia is a pet/favorite card of mine in this deck. It's a splashy finish, and has some thematic/lore wins attached. If you read some of my other deck primers, you'll see that I'm a follower of the Vorthos/lore playstyle, so I sometimes end up playing some cards that might be better thematically rather than actually effective haha.
