Well This is a Deck I put together, had a lot of fun making and lots of fun playing. I love building decks then tweaking them to make then perfect, but I normally need help with tweaking part.
-------------------------------------------------------

// Lands
4 DS Darksteel Citadel
4 MR Great Furnace
2 MR Ancient Den
3 MR Seat of the Synod
3 MR Vault of Whispers

// Creatures
2 MR Silver Myr
2 MR Myr Retriever
2 MR Myr Mindservant
2 MR Myr Enforcer
2 MR Iron Myr
2 MR Leaden Myr
2 MR Gold Myr
2 DS Coretapper
2 DS Darksteel Colossus

// Spells
4 MR Banshee's Blade
4 FD Energy Chamber
2 FD Engineered Explosives
2 DS AEther Vial
4 DS Darksteel
4 DS Dismantle 2R
2 MR Power Conduit
2 ON Riptide Replicator
2 PRE Door of Destinies

---------------------------------------------

The cards I need to get rid of is: Darksteel Colloseus, and probably Engineered explosives.

Darksteel: Too exspencive to even get out into play.
Engineered Explosives: Not a very good card for this deck, but I needed something that would get rid of things I didn't like.

I could probably add somethings with Modular and Affinity for artifacts. But I don't know what would be best for this deck, any advise would help. I appreciate constructive criticism.

Keep the retrievers tho. Otherwise, yeah.. go affinity. It will def be sick in casual games.

Yes your friends will Love you playing perhasp the most notoriously broken and hated deck of all time in casual. Make it the version before skullclamp banning just incase you have any soft touches in your play group to ensure no one ever wants to play you again.

But honestly Im surprised you didn't make me get rid of anything else but the creatures, Exspecially Dismantle.

If your playing for casual the most important thing is not winning, its that everyone is enjoying themselves and that generally means playing decks that are fairly matched, so although making tournament standard affinity would undeniably make your deck better, it would be bad for the group. It would even be a good idea when posting in causal forums to give an idea of what your playing against, so people can suggest cards that would interact in a fun way with what your group is already playing.

Yes i get the general impression you do, I wish I could be of more help but I have'nt really played magic in a casual enviroment since mirrodin came out. A couple of mishra artificer prodigy is the best card i can think of that may be fun to try in the deck perhasp replacing darksteel collosus, also a couple more lands so your running at least 20 would'nt go a miss.
