The main key to an Affinity deck is draw power and mana acceleration so you can 
play your artifacts for free.  It is important to play those artifact lands as 
soon as you see them.  When you get enough mana start drawing cards like crazy 
with Thoughtcast and Thirst for Knowledge.  You gotta hit hard and fast.  When 
you come to a roadblock like your opponent’s 13/13 Beast just blow it up with 
Irradiate.  Irradiate is creature removal and has synergy with the deck, I just 
gave your creature -15/-15 muwahaha.  Welding Jar is there to protect your Myr 
Enforcers.  Once Broodstar hits the board its game.  Mana Leak and Assert Authority 
are good for protecting your artifacts (Counterspell isn't in 8th :P)  Without speed 
Affinity decks just fall apart.
