I was keeping tabs on the Pro Tour this last week and what was working. I saw mono red aggro won (congrats to the winners) and energy was doing fairly well. I did some looking around and saw some builds for this deck that seem to be pretty competitive.

Record: 1-3
I think the main flaw of the deck is a lack of mainboard removal. I'm likely going to put in Declaration in Stone as Stasis Snare puts my CMC 3 up to a pretty high level and I'm worried about mana curve. In addition, I've found that I …

Things went really well in the first FNM!
Match 1: RG Werewolves, 2-1
Match 2: Shota's PT Winning Grixis Control Deck, 1-2
Match 3: UR Dynavolt Tower, 2-0
Match 4: Shota's PT Winning Grixis Control Deck, 2-1
3-1 against two Shota decks? I'll definitely take that record.

My first real test with this deck was at Gameday on Saturday 8/13/16. I finished regular play 4-1, losing to a friend of mine in round 1, and sat in 3rd place. All 4 of my wins were 2-0 and most of the matches weren't even close. No one could …

Thanks again for your comments PlanesWalker_Mason, Argeaux, PistonGolem, Tethys, and deltacobra ... they're all located under the Comments button now.
Short story is I'm playing better and better, but my recent tweaks to the deck were not helpful, and it played worse :-(

Well, my first FNM since building this deck specifically, lol. ANYWAY, I went 1-2-0 but the deck performed just as expected! First round I went against a green blue deck relying on mana ramps, not too difficult and boosting up Nantuko Husk forced him to get his big green creatures …

I'm testing the deck with the ascendancy in the main board and ashiok in the side. Then boarding ashiok in against monsters decks to use there stiff against them. But playing the the pre-release I have seen first hand how powerful the deck filtering power of the ascendancy is and …

Went 3-1 tonight. Generally pretty happy with how the deck performed but I'll take any suggestions to make it more competitive.

Played my first FNM with the deck and went 2-2. I made some tweaks to the list as a result.

Adding more Walkers was a bad idea. I noticed more than anything that I'd draw a walker like Jace or Kiora and lose momentum. Partly because I never could seem to draw an answer to their threats, or my own threats. Out of the 14 or so answers (including Thoughtseize …
