This deck revolves around Kenku Artificier comboing with a selection of artifacts that can also become creatures for a small activation cost.
Main Deck:
What this deck is trying to achieve is winning by having Kenku target one of the three different flavours of artifact that can be turned into a creature using a low-cost triggered ability. Whilst Kenku already turns artifacts into homonculi with +1/+1 counters on, targeting artifacts that can also be turned into creatures allows for some pretty spicy attacks. For example - Kenku turns the Dire Mimic into a 0/0 homonculi with 3 +1/+1 counters on it and flying. You swing in (chances are unblocked thanks to flying) and then pay Mimic's activation cost to turn it's base power and toughness into 5/5. With the counters added on, you're swing with an 8/8. Stuffed Bear and Glint Hawk Idol work in the same way with varying stats and abilities, Glint Hawk Idol having the added bonus of keeping its status as a flyer.
To go with these odd artifacts, our deck contains 2 "lords". Archaeomancer lets us bring our flicker spells back from the graveyard while Duskshell Crawler puts a +1/+1 counter on a creature and gives everything with a +1/+1 counter trample. Bioshift works well in this deck to either help maximise damage by shifting counters to your unblocked creature, or to move counters from a creature that would otherwise perish. Lifecrafter's Gift gives us a decent buff, while Implement of Ferocity gives both a small buff with added card draw.
Sideboard:
The sideboard gives a few buffs through Crystal Carapace and Double Cleave that could easily finish off an opponent if you already have a decent board state. Aqueous Form makes your creatures unblockable, along with creature and artifact removal from Ram Through and Sunder the Gateway. Ram Through combos well with Duskshell Crawler, allowing you to remove a threat whilst dealing extra damage thanks to trample. Sunder the Gateway also gives us a small amount of Incubate tokens should we fail to find one of our usual artifacts. These incubate tokens can be flipped normally, but also work with Kenku to make a few fairly decent creatures.
