I started playing a GW cat deck last week that I found online (https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/1200952#paper). The deck did not do very well for me at my LGS. Leonin Warleader seem really slow. I faced a lot of creature decks so even if you get Leonin Warleader out on the board, he can't swing in without dying. Radiant Destiny just feels bad too. It is an enchantment that doesn't really have board presence if you lose your creatures. I ran into two dragon decks at my LGS that just destroyed me with Spitfires and Glorybringers. A lot of my opponents would not attack because they were worried I was running Settle the Wreckage, and I could not get through due to their big blockers. I decided that Dusk//Dawn belongs in the cat deck. I got rid of the slow Leonin Warleaders. I felt like Leonin Vanguard was also a "do nothing" card in the deck. It is a 1/1 that just dies very easily. Adorned Pouncer also seems very underwhelming to me but I'm going to keep it in and give it another try. I feel like going for a more low to the ground approach with the deck. A lot of the dragon decks run Sweltering Suns but with Dusk//Dawn, I can clear their board and then get my creatures back.
