I was only including cards that this might want. I excluded a couple equipments as well since they didn't fit into the colors/strategy. There seems to be a glut of 3 drops here which makes emptying your hand for Bridge difficult.
The three slot is probably too crowded. 2-3 tutor targets and Trophy Mage is already 6-7 3 drops and we haven't even gotten into any of the CA engines.
I believe I was running 2 Deed, 1 Deluge main as sweepers in my old SFM list from earlier in the year. One less Deed to avoid losing your equipment to seemed ok at the time. Elspeth, Knight-Errant always seemed a house when I could land her - what's better than Arbor suited up with equipment? Arbor given +3/+3 and flying with that equipment.
I was kind of thinking about one of the green 2 drops with Vigilance as an equipment carrier.
Brushstrider
Steward of Valeron
Sylvan Advocate
Of those, I like Advocate the most since it combos well with Shackles putting out lands and it's value off Explorer too so it pivots well (though begs the question, why not just play Goyf?), but I like that Steward helps alleviate the 3 drop congestion by providing mana too.
I haven't yet figured out if this conflicts with Strix though, which is also a solid Sword carrier. I think this build has to give up Divining Top.
If you want something to help you get through with Sword triggers, I'd say Grim Flayer and Baleful Strix are your best bets.
I've been watching twitch user Stryfo lately and he has a unique BUG Fit list. No GSZ, full 4 Deathrite, Strixes, 2 Trackers, Garruk Relentless, couple of Jace, and it tops out with Nissa VF and Ob Nixilis. Pulse of Murasa from the side has done some phenomenal work. It's basically a lower-cmc no-GSZ list that is chock full of value. Basically instead of having 7 mana to GSZ for a fatty, he uses excess mana to play all the extra cards the deck draws. Painful Truths->E Witness-> Truths-> Pulse Witness->Truths...
I'd suggest anyone on here to look him up and check out what the deck can do.
Just thinking, with Strixes along with CA-generating equipment tutors like SFM or this new blue guy, could be possible to mimic that style - equipment beats instead of planeswalkers though.
I would love to take a look at this list. Pulse of Murasa was a card I've been thinking about for a long time, but I had concerns about it's power level.
I used to be pretty cold towards GSZ, but after seeing what it does when you have 4 in the deck and you're constantly shuffling, I have a lot of difficulty imagining the deck without them. I'd be interested to see how many cantrips and value cards they run total.
I've been away from nicfit for some time now ironing out a turbo depths list but some recent acquisitions have me looking at bugfit as a new toy. I'm still brewing but I've decided a tezz/thopter plan is what I want to play but the numbers are still a mess. I'm looking at this and scratching my head. I still need to pick up a few things but here's where id like to start.
4 Veteran explorer
3 baleful strix
1 hangerback walker
1 e witness
1 edric
1 leovold
1 glissa
1 verdurous gear hulk
3 thopter foundry
2 sword of the meek
4 tezzerat
3 zenith
3 top
4 cabal therapy
2 ee
1 deed
1 counterbalance
3 decay
22 lands
3 bayou
1 tropical
1 usea
4 verdant
2 misty
2 delta
3 forest
2 swamp
2 island
1 phyrexian tower
1 tar pit
3 chalice
1 trinishpere
2 ensnaring bridge
1 counterbalance
2 ts
1 grip
3 force
2 ?
Scooze, sower of temptation, deathrite, jace, innocent blood, painful truths, and sylvan library are glaring omissions. So little space... I'm not sold the stompy manarock shell is the only home for tezz.
Junk and Stoned Rhinos.

Any love for a straight GB build?
"eggs... why'd it have to be eggs"
The mana base available to us is good enough at splashing a third colour doesn't really impact our consistency much. There isn't much reason not to, unless you just really want to run Hymn to Tourach, but the additional utility the other colors five you is generally just more powerful.
