Information

Currently testing with a 77% winrate (34-10) through to diamond I.

Jennev Merchant has done a lot for the deck. The introduction of Teacher of Humility into the metagame, especially given its popularity right now, necessitates answers such as Annihilate. The market, in addition to Herald's Song, makes Annihilate less of a liability than it used to be. The merchant also adds some consistency to the influence of the deck as well, and presents as an early blocker against aggro, and even Teacher of Humility on the play. It also slightly increases our winrate against Icaria Blue (and other Starsteel Daisho decks) and Crystalline Chalice, allowing us to include Vision of Austerity in the "deck". It's possible that there should be three Merchants in the deck, especially since drawing multiples isn't a huge liability.

As far as the market itself goes, I'm not sure if Aid of the Hooru is necessary, as Celestial Omen fills a similar role, but it is the best non-unit Primal wincon past Channel the Tempest #4.

I briefly tested End of the Story over Stray into Shadow, but felt there were too many Dawnwalkers around to not play it. This might be too results-based a decision, however, given that we have Bring Down and Feeding Time as ways to deal with that particular card. It may be correct to play End of the Story right now and is almost certainly correct when the metagame shifts away from the Time midrange decks as people figure out how to build other decks. This shift is already starting, even.

The deck is also just a blast to play. Market 11/10 mechanic.

I played a couple of games and it turned out that I got sigil starved more than it is healthy for an acceptable win rate. I would say, 25 Sigils without tutors is not enough for such a control deck. What do you think? Apart from that it is a neat deck that is fun to play. Thanks.

I only played a couple games with it, but this is a very well put together deck. Always felt in control no matter what my opponent played. The Celestial Omen in the market is a really cute idea and I love how it makes the 1-of Azindel's Gift pretty consistent in a control mirror.
