Went 3-1-1 with a similar deck list. Was going for first place, but my loss in round 5 dropped me to 3rd place. Lost to Jund Midrange and tied with one of the token decks I played against. The deck is essentially black/white aggro and uses Midnight Oil to maintain a steady stream of cards mid-late game. Once the counters on Midnight Oil run out, Im still drawing and playing 2 cards a turn thanks to my low curve. I also have the option to play a second Oil to increase my handsize temporarily (time stamp rulings) and draw 3 cards each upkeep. Lilianas Mastery provides scaling late game power that doesnt totally get punished by Cast Away / Ixalans binding.

The deck is fairly low budget, thus only 1 Fatal Push.

Any suggestions would be appreciated! I would also love suggestions on how to sideboard against the meta decks.
