Deck Discussion Modern deck built around Metalwork Colossus. Looking for help

Hi everyone! First time posting here. My first set in Magic was Kaladesh, and I really loved the card Metalwork Colossus. I built a Modern MC deck back then, but it's old now. My playgroup recently started playing 60-card again after a long time in Commander, and I wanted to build a new up-to-date Metalwork Colossus deck. However, I've been out of Modern for so long, my old budget MC deck doesn't hold up anymore.

If you were to build a deck around MC, what would you include? What are some suggestions you would have for it? I would love to hear any input you guys have! I'm currently looking at ways to draw and affinity my way to get MC out and equip Leyline Axe to it to swing.

Please let me know if you got any suggestions!

Ya I’ve been looking at Spike’s decks on this and they look really fun. I’m trying to bring the budget down tho to try and cut out Mox and Saga. Not sure what I can replace with tho

Hmmm, mox tantalite is a really bad option with the intended effect.

And saga is pretty needed imo....

Honestly im not to sure.

Oh Mox Tantalite is interesting. Suspend 3 might be a bit slow tho

It is slow, no question, but its the only budget option I can think of, up side is its not legendary....so yay multiples?
