Turned out to be a solid night to play Mono-Black again after taking a break from my Mardu Merriment deck that I have been playing lately over the past few weeks. I feel like I could've gone 4-0, but it came down who ending up going first in the Dimir match up.

Bant Control (W 2-1)
Dimir Control (L 1-2)
Selesnya Enchantments (W 2-1)
Abzan Midrange (W 2-0)
