Information

Almost made top 64 with this last minute brew in the Stormbreak Open, finishing 18-10. I picked this list based on these assumptions about the meta:

Plenty of aggro - whether it’s soldiers and mono fire, this list has plenty of answers. Rolant and KTE are very anti-aggro. I did indeed run into a good amount of aggro.

Plenty of mandrakes - Moldermuck is great against mandrakes, as are Rolant and KTE. During my run, I saw almost no mandrakes in my matches. However, this setup worked out pretty well against menace aggro decks that also relied on Krull recursion.

Plenty of 4F sling - Reappropriator is a key card in this matchup, and market Disrupt is backup relic hate. This was probably the most common matchup I ran into, and I managed a positive win rate, with many matches dependent on whether the sling player can protect their slings.

Not much Overloader combo - because I expected lots of aggro, I also expected most people to shy away from trying to run combo. This turned out to be my biggest mistake for this event, as I did end up running into plenty of combo matchups with a 100% loss rate. Exploit, market Devastating Setback and Eilyn’s Choice were basically my only answers and that was not good enough.

Not much control (TJS, Combrei) - I don’t think control is great in the current meta, so I didn’t bother worrying about them. Only 1 loss here, to a TJS list.

Overall, the deck performed about as well as I had hoped for. In retrospect, I think I could have done better by leaning more into the primal side of things for more spell hate.

Trying this deck, and I'm consistently losing games to not hitting my second shadow influence in time. When it hits SS it does well, though.

I mulligan pretty aggressively when playing this, to make sure at least some cards in my opening hand are playable.
