Just another URx Ragavan pile but this time with extra artifact synergies. 4 copies of Urza's Saga (and a pseudo 5th copy with 1 Expedition Map), easy delirium on an Unholy Heat to replay with Dreadhorde Arcanist, Emry, Lurker of the Loch, and a couple Enraged Giants to turbo out then equip and beatdown.

The deck is mainly based around Dreadhorde Arcanist, Urza's Saga, Enraged Giant, and Eater of Virtue.

Dreadhorde Arcanist feels very strong when you kill most things with Lightning Bolt and Unholy Heat and if for whatever reason you can then Vapor Snag will clear the way. You can even replay the Expressive Iterations if Dreadhorde Arcanist is equipped and that is some insane value.

Urza's Saga is extra overpowered because we have several artifacts to choose from when it reaches chapter 3 and also we have many artifacts to make the constructs from chapter 2 very big.

Enraged Giant seems like trash for constructed play but it is actually crazy when you can play it for usually 2 or 3 mana and if you have a treasure token or 2 about then you can even equip the creature immediately and maybe just end the game right there. It isn't a card you want to have in your opening hand but if you topdeck the card later in the game then it will almost always be strong when it hits the table. It is pretty strong with Eater of Virtue because if your opponent is able to remove your Enraged Giant (assuming we aren't holding a Force of Negation) then the next creature you equip gets trample and haste.

Speaking of which, Eater of Virtue puts in a lot of work for this deck actually. Every creature becomes much more powerful with it equipped and all of them have something to imbue into it should they go to the graveyard. Bomat Courier has haste, Dreadhorde Arcanist has trample, and Enraged Giant has both. Then for flying you have Network Disruptor and Hope of Ghirapur. Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer doesn't do anything extra for it but if you have Ragavan then just tutor the Shadowspear with Urza's Saga instead. It sort of feels like the low curve version of a Stoneforge Mystic package but just with Shadowspear, Eater of Virtue, and Urza's Saga instead of Batterskull and Kaldra Compleat.

Also, 18 lands might seem low and especially so because the Urza's Sagas don't stick around long but it is actually okay when this deck has almost every card at CMC 2 or less and also has Moonsnare Prototype, Expedition Map, and Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer treasure tokens to generate more mana in a pinch.
