Everyone experiments with a voltron deck at one point and like many, I chose Kemba, Kha Regent to be my first foray into this deck style. At the time few in my area had tried her, although since them a few have. As an aggressive deck, there are many weaknesses, but quite often a heavily equipped Kemba can be a threat some decks just can't deal with.

As always my deck lists start out a bit mana short and ramp light. My current thoughts are on using Thunder Totem, Marble Diamond, Coldsteel Heart or just adding more lands.
As a voltron deck the goal should be obvious, get Kemba out there and making cats, while doing my best to protect her.
Equipment Choices Argentum Armor - Like Jitte, this is very powerful and an alternate form of removal, despite its heavy cost.
Kaldra Set - This seemed like a given, they have bonuses and when together make their own creature. Very powerful.
4/5 Elemental Swords - I felt that Body and Mind was weakest of the lot, due to it not being in common removal colours. This is why I chose to
exclude just it. Everything else fits the deck fine.
Konda's Banner - This buffs the cats and Kemba, everything I need.
Skullclamp - When running the best equipment, the clamp is always in consideration. This allows card advantage when blocking and when a sacrifice land is online.
Umezawa's Jitte - One of the most powerful pieces of equipment ever printed. It's low cost and reusable removal is what sells it to me.
I am interested in feedback on how I could improve the mana and the deck in general. I often have no trouble with mana IF I hit Land Tax or Thawing Glaciers, but sometimes the deck can get mana screwed.
I also play Weiss Schwarz, Chaos, Vanguard and Wixoss.

Looks like a solid starting point. 1 dude I've found really great in white Voltron decks is Argivian Archaeologist. He's a little hard to come by but if You can find Him He's well worth the space.
Is there some reason Extraplanar Lens isn't in the mana doublers package?
I would cut the temple of the false god for Scrying sheets and switch over to the snow covered land package. This will give you the occasional card draw white lacks. Diviner's wand is great for card draw as well and should be in this build. The livingweapons package should also be included. Some mass removal wouldn't hurt either. At least mass calcify.

I didn't want to get two for oned and I view Extraplanar Lens as a liability at times. I'll reinvestigate it and the old card you mentioned. It's like Goblin Wizard, a card that seems really powerful, but also unknown.

I don't have the snow lands to create that style deck, but I'll investigate and mono white decks of mine have had snow-covered before. The wand seems alright, but my deck is a bit creature heavy to need living equipment overly much, and only Bonehoard seems to be desirable from them.

I don't know how, but I over looked your sorcery section. So retract my original statement about running mass removal, because that looks like a lot. Your creature count isn't high so I'm only seeing you with two creatures in play, three at the most unless you hit your token generators. You could use some earlyonedrops that even late game you're not afraid to hit. If you're going to run one living weapon over the other, choose batterskull. It's ability to return to your hand ensures you always have a creature.

I have seven sweepers in there already - Martial Coup, Austere Command, Hallowed Burial, Final Judgement, Catastrophe, Phyrexian Rebirth and also Rout. I could replace one with Mass Calcify, but I'm wary of adding more and prior to posting list I even cut Day of Judgement and Wrath of God for just being wraths.
I don't have the snow lands to create that style deck, but I'll investigate and mono white decks of mine have had snow-covered before. The wand seems alright, but my deck is a bit creature heavy to need living equipment overly much, and only Bonehoard seems to be desirable from them.
Thank you both of you for your feedback.
