Made some tweaks to the 75 in light of the recent banning of Splinter Twin and Summer Bloom.

More tweaking for SCG regionals.

Looks pretty good to me. The only thing I'd say is that Wanderwine Hub is probably not going to do much, since not many people run Boil or Choke these days.

So I attended my first SCG regionals (Chicago) over the weekend and did fairly well at 6-3. I started off strong at 3-0, then hit an 0-3 slump, only to finish strong with a 3-0 back end. Nine rounds of swiss with slightly over 400 in attendance for a 54th place finish.

• Round 1: 2-0 vs Jund
• Round 2: 2-0 vs Jund
• Round 3: 2-0 vs Abzan
• Round 4: 1-2 vs Affinity
• Round 5: 1-2 vs Abzan (lost game 3 to a top deck Siege Rhino)
• Round 6: 1-2 vs Burn (lost game 3 to a top deck hard cast Rift Bolt)
• Round 7: 2-1 vs Grixis Moon
• Round 8: 2-1 vs Burn
• Round 9: 2-0 vs Jeskai Control

All cards had their moment, but I'd have to say that the MVP card was Harbinger of the Tides; he over-performed!

Honorable mentions go out to Master of Waves (dropping him for 5-6 elemental tokens was usually game over), and Spreading Seas (gaining islandwalk on a stalled board state is sweet).

Love the list. Will probably tweak a bit and weather the storm of our Eldrazi overlords!

Good result, though you encountered a bit of bad luck on those Burn and Abzan matchups - those are matches that we tend to win. As for the Eldrazi... try your stock list against them first for a bit, then adjust with either more Echoing Truth or more Sea's Claim as necessary.

Thanks Rothgar13! I was also thinking the Sea's Claim route as well; maybe a 6 Seas version. But yeah, I will play the current list at the next couple of FNM's before SCG Louisville. Not sure what I'll register for that event, but probably not too much different than the list above.

Adding main board land destruction for an expected uptick in Tron and Eldrazi decks.

So, my Louisville experience wasn't so great. Went 4-5 for a whopping 307th out of 725. The deck didn't draw particularly well that weekend, plus I made some poor mulligan decisions. Ah well, that's magic.

Tournament synopsis:

• Round 1 vs Blue Moon (2-0, 1-0)
• Round 2 vs GR Tron (0-2, 1-1)
• Round 3 vs GR Tron (2-0, 2-1)
• Round 4 vs Abzan Company (0-2, 2-2)
• Round 5 vs Affinity (0-2, 2-3)
• Round 6 vs Black Eldrazi (2-1, 3-3)
• Round 7 No Show (4-3)
• Round 8 vs Affinity (0-2, 4-4)
• Round 9 vs Abzan Company (0-2, 4-5)

Still loving Merfolk even though it didn't give me much love that weekend.
