There was a bit of talk about this deck in the new main thread before the emergency cat ban happened:

https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/626179#paper

We can discuss deck choices here. I'm running a variant of this that lacks the enemy fetches, but runs four swiftspear instead of two. Why these people keep running two I have no idea.

what is up with forked bolt?

Played B/W eldrazi for a while but the mana was just awful. Been doing very well with it so far, albeit against soft competition. Smuggler's Copter is house and flickering Blade Splicer gets out of control quickly. Some current concerns I have:

-At what point is the eldrazi package just not worth it? They're the cards I keep shaving when I want to make room for something else. I know a few people who play mono-white and they love tectonic edge. Super scared to cut Thought-Knot Seer though because it's really hard to interact with ramp decks otherwise.

-Does anyone have experience with Dryad Militiant or Kytheon? Inspector has seemed mediocre, it's rarely the best thing worth flickering. Having a 1-drop seems really important for crewing purposes.

-Suggestions to replace Eidolon of Rhetoric? After 16+ matches I've brought it in once for Ad Nauseam, which I feel like I'm already favored in.

This is a budget modern deck, primarily focused on generating thopter tokens to reach one of three outcomes: Lethal damage by attack, pumping up Indomitable Creativity to drop Reckless Fireweavers and artifacts/token generators, or casting Mechanized Production on Prophetic Prism or Alchemist's Vial until you can get to 8 thopters.

Inspiring Statuary plays a key role in allowing you to more easily play out thopter generators, as well as allowing you to cast Indomitable Creativity on every artifact you own for RRR. Panharmonicon is included to double triggers on a lucky cast and Paradoxical Outcome and Cathartic Reunion are included in case you are not having luck drawing what you need.

It has been a real fun play so far, and currently costs under $5 from scratch online.

Deck: Indomitable

12 Mountain

4 Ghirapur Gearcrafter
4 Maverick Thopterist
2 Ornithopter
3 Reckless Fireweaver
4 Thopter Engineer
2 Whirler Rogue

That's a pretty sweet deck idea. Servo Schematic seems like it would be better than one of your other thopter generators. Same with the white puzzleknot as well, forget what the name is. Also you really need some more red sources in there, hitting RRR of of 14 of them is pretty ambitious.
