Notes
 
First picked (pk1:Pia, pk2:Cultivator's Caravan, pk3:Cataclysmic Gearhulk because Gearhulk), noteable pickups: Lathnu pick 2 or 3, Syndicate Traficker as a pick 4-5. Unlicensed Disintigration was a pick 4-5 on pack 2... I cut Red/Black very hard pack one so maybe that actually played out? Bomat pick 7 since it did so much in my deck but I realize it takes the right framework.

Notes and surprises:
This didn't seem super fast at first glance, but then the format in reality isn't actually super fast unless someone has one of the good 2/3 drop vehicles or is also in Red/Black. Matchup against a Gw deck was fine as it took too long to get rolling (Beth in final round). Subtle strike was at least a 2-for-1 and is just super solid with the ability to target two things. Having the 7 solid tricks allowed Bomat Courier to draw me 3 in one game [no discard], 5 in another [no discard], 2 in another [1 discard of creature that didn't do much for the board for me but trade], and I made the decision to push more damage through in another game (use my trick to save my 5/2) rather than draw 4 [mana only allowed for 1 or other] on discard 2. It ended up being a super solid card which was sort of surprising, I threw it in mainly as a haster for 1 that could benefit from Pia's artifact creature pump. Pia is awesome. The threat of her Thopter swinging in the air next turn for 3-4+ is pretty big.

Anyway, building deck I didn't seem to struggle as much as I usually do making cuts. I threw out 2x5 cost creatures in favor of the Terror of the Fairgrounds for CMC reasons. Cut a few spells and mediocre artifacts that just weren't important enough to drive an artifact theme.
