Just test ran an earlier version of this deck, trying to find Lone Rider   a home. This is an improved list.

Played against

Tokens,
Eldrazi Control,
Devil's Goggles,
Dragons.

Lone Rider   proved super easy to flip. Generally either swung with it and Shambling Vent. Or recursed it with Ojutai's Command at the end of their turn.

They did a lot of work early and late. Solid card in this deck.

Eldrazi Control gave me trouble. Catered my side board to be more effective vs control decks.
