Only with all basics. Possible but irrelevant. Thanks for reading tho.

I've been going 3-1 at FNM the last two weeks, losing to G/X monsters every time. It's definitely my worst matchup, and I'm working on ways to help beat it. I'm going to play another Wednesday night magic on wednesday to see how the changes will help.
MB:
+2 Murderous Cut
-1 Nyx Weaver
-1 Dig Through Time
I found I was getting Dig a little too often, believe it or not. Getting 2 early was just too heavy of a tempo loss to cast early in the game. So I'm going to try 3 for awhile and see how it goes.
The more I play with Nyx weaver, the less I'm impressed with it. I cut the copies down to 1 just as a redundancy check for cards I might need in my graveyard. It's just too slow to warrant wanting to actually play early, and mainly acts as Courser #4 with a different skin.
Sideboard:
-2 Murderous Cuts
-2 Rescue from the Underworld
+2 Perilous Vaults
+1 Duneblast
+1 Pharika, God of Affliction
I like Rescue against Abzan a lot, but I need options that are also good against G/X Devo. Maybe I'll try to make room to put Rescue back in, but I'm going to try this for a week and see how it goes.

zygon91 Wouldn't a bunch of doomwake giants be good against Gx? at least to remove the dorks and insects.
Also, why do you have Vaults...is that a bit too extreme?

The sideboard is seeing heavy reconstruction and testing. I'm a little hesitant on Doomwake because like you said, my goal is to wipe away his dorks. However the dork I have the most problem with is voyaging satyr, as that's when the match gets a little out of control. I don't really feel comfortable being able to trigger doomwake twice in one turn.
The sideboard was updated, which I will do when I get home from work.

Why not any Siege Rhino? I mean, Even if you whip him from the grave, you will end up gaining 7 off of it and they at least lose 3...that's a 10 lifepoint shift. And if it deals all damage, it could be a 14 lifepoint differential all in one. I am trying to make a build similar to this utilizing Siege Rhino but I am having a hard time finding Courser of Kruphix and Sylvan Caryatid and Hornet Queen. I feel the deck is pretty much deck without those.

Also, how come no Empty the Pits? I really want to incorporate into my build.

Looks good, and I love reanimator! The only thing I have to say is that you can most definitely turn 2 courser with turn 3 sidisi with less than 2 painlands. But that's fairly irrelavant lol. Nice job man
