So it had a pretty bad showing at FNM lol. Maybe it was matchups, maybe it's a bad deck lol. Idk, I played it as well as I could, but I can't replenish my hand very well so I run out of gas pretty fast and Felidar Sovereign isn't the card I wanted to see out. Odric, Lunarch Marshal is now what this deck is built for. I just can't seem to make Felidar a good win-con xD
I'll share what this deck needs before I go into detail on how badly I got stepped on lol. Spot and mass removal is a big problem for this deck. If a few key pieces go missing, the boardstate falls apart. By few I mean one or 2. Most times they'll target my Fetid Imp because flying and possible deathtouch is nasty. Odric is just whatever if I have no keywords :P
I need more removal. The Tandem Tactics are too situational. Altho they did save a few of my guys a few times, I didn't much care for them. The control player in me really wants more removal instead.
Anyways, along to my terrible performance :P
0-4 Overall
0-2 against Esper Goodstuff
Gideon, Ally of Zendikar Jace, Vryn's Prodigy
Flip Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet Declaration in Stone other removal. Didn't really have a chance once any of that hit the field. I did have him on the ropes in game 1, but once Kalitas or Gideon came knocking, it was over.
0-2 against 4 color Seasons Past/Brain in the Jar
It was interesting. The guy had a cool looking deck tho cuz all his cards were Japanese/Korean foils. Dropped a bunch of man lands, Dark Petitions tutored up whatever, he dropped Nissa's Renewal about 4 times after getting it back lol. Eventually dropping Sorin and Ob Nixillus and winning. He kept my guys off the board and just kept playing by himself til I lost. Good time still. I liked seeing the combos he kept pulling off lol.
2-1 against Golgori Elf Triball
These ones were pretty close. I took game one pretty easily, got odric-the-lunar-marshal to stick, alongside Citadel Castellan. Fetid Imp and Farbog Revenant with Assault Formation out. He dropped the elf that gives you life everytime it swings in and our lifetotals both did a rollercoaster cuz of my lifelink shenanigans, but I beat him down in the end.
2nd game he sided in Duress to take out my Assault Formation, but for the next 2 games I don't think I ever even drew it lol. But he did end up winning because he Duressed out what little removal I had. Couldn't stop the tide of elves this time, tho it was grindy. He used that instant from SOI that bounces a creature til the endstep on Gilt-Leaf Winnower a few times. THAT was cool combol lol.
Game 3 went about the same as game 2, except I didn't get going nearly as well. I was on the ropes pretty much the whole game.
0-2 against Izzet Prowess
Well, not too much to say here. He drew a good hand and burned out my guys about as quick as they hit the field, and kept swinging with Stormchaser Mage and Elusive Spellfist. I didn't get much of a match here either.
