So what you want to happen is cast a Riddlesmith on turn one, cast another 0-mana artifact and draw-discard something big. Next turn cast a Welder and just weld the shit out of that match. Or cast a planeswalker because you can draw mana really quick with the Riddlesmith.
A blog on and about vintage. Posting are two players that have played the format competitively since 2000, but with breaks to study and just generally do other things. We live and play in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Aggro Affinity!
This past saturday there was a vintage turney at my local store. I couldnt play the weekend before but showed up after it had started to talk crap. I saw that there was just one stax and two oath that event so I decided the time was right to play something really aggressive without counters!
So I played:
4 Memnite
4 Signal Pest
4 Phyrexian Revoker
3 Arcbound Ravager
4 Master of Etherium
1 Blightsteel Colossus
1 Trinisphere
1 Time Walk
1 Tinker
3 Skullclamp
4 Cranial Plating
5 Moxen
2 Mox Opal
1 Mana Crypt
1 Black Lotus
1 Sol Ring
4 Wasteland
1 Strip Mine
4 Underground Sea
3 Ancient Tomb
3 Seat of the Synod
4 Vault of Whispers
1 Tolarian Academy
Id cut Tinker and Blightsteel Colossus. Wasteland and Strip Mine are probably also not aggressive enough in the format for this deck (their better with workshops and giant critters). UB Tezz should be good.
I lost most matches because of well timed HurkRecall and topdeck-modes that opponents were luckier at.
It is a really fun deck to play but it is at a huge casual-tier.
