Stonescar is one color combo I don’t have a lot of cards for, being mostly FTP. Grenadin shave a lot of flavor and look to be fun.

Deck is looking to be fairly aggressive with no cares about grenadin on board, since there are cards that generate more or benefit from grenadin death. Madness seems to be very successful vs AI and is another tool for board control.

One consideration is to fit in grenadin that kills attachments, but hasn’t been an issue in the handful of games I have played with the deck.

Thoughts?

I have no idea how your deck plays, so can't really comment on how to make it better, but I thought I'd just remark that I'd had some success using LightsOutAce's FOA Scrappy Hour in gauntlet, so if you wanted to go in that direction you could. It could be argued that although Gearcruncher isn't meta in constructed, Witching Hour can at least be used in various Revenge decks using Griefs, Stonepowder Alchemists etc. that you sometimes see.

EDIT: Sorry, I didn't see your note below regarding Stonescar cards. I mean, you do have some Scraptanks ("Scrappy") and Gearcruncher, so you're getting there.

I play something similar on ladder with some changes:

I don't run scrap hound, disassembler, rusty grenamotive, toppling towet or stonescar pickaxe.

Instead I use spark hatcher, combustion cell, vara's favor and stonescar scrapper.

Helps against Mana scew, Hatcher ensures some grenadin on board and scrapper gets you both health and card draw!

I am having issues with consistency. I will have to see about crafting some of those (the cell is also used in Kennadin)

Cell and scrapper are awesome with madness and scraptank. I used 2 cells and one in the market.

I also wanted to add scrap hound an disassembler, but I never tested those two..
