IN: Daretti, Scrap Savant, Wild-Field Scarecrow

OUT: Mogg War Marshal, Stingscourger

I discovered Daretti could definitely find a place in this deck; I have 26 artifacts. With minor testing, the first ability is incredibly useful, and has some surprising synergy with his second ability. His emblem is rather mediocre, but that's not why he's in the deck.

The recommendation I had of which card to take out was Mogg War Marshal, and though it's done enough for me in the past, I'm inclined to agree. Really, all it does it buy me time early game if I have nothing else to do. Two goblins a turn isn't bad, and having that many helps put me in a favorable position in analyzing who to attack, but not so favorable that I'm a threat. However, it doesn't change the fact that in many situations it doesn't pull it's own weight.

After I found a massive box full of free cards in the garbage, I got a hefty amount of uncommons and commons from Shadows Over Innistrad, one of which got my attention; Wild-Field Scarecrow. I misread it at first, thinking it put them into play instead of hand. While not nearly as good as I thought at first, I decided t give it a shot since it's basically a repeatable Armilliary Sphere. Stingscourger came out in it's place; he's good, but that echo cost really is a bitch to pay.
