Ship of Theseus —May 25, 2024

I just went 0-5 for the first time in a while with that last revision; it's impossible to tell from just one result whether that was actually caused by the changes, but I had a pretty miserable time, so I'm taking another critical look at the list.

Basically what I've done is, because I kept looking to Mono Red lists for guidance, reimagined the deck as a fork of the stock Mono Red list, with two main differences: 1) there are several hits for Birthright Boon, and 2) there are some substitutions and changes to take advantage of the fact that I'm in two colors.

The main thing I want to try out with this list is Sword of Once and Future as an upgrade to Bloodthirsty Adversary, so I've invested a lot more in spells and prowess creatures. For this reason I chose to stick with Urabrask's Forge over Wedding Announcement  Flip as a three-drop token generator, since the former's trample could be important to connecting with the sword. Another thing is that enchantments are in a lot more danger right now because of Destroy Evil and Glissa Sunslayer, in my experience at least.

Sideboard updates will continue until win rate improves.
