Do you hate everything, do you hate temur energy, do you just want your opponent confused and angry about how many answers you have to the entire board. Then i have made the deck for you. Not a single card in the deck besides Arguel's Blood Fast   and the lands do not have removal attached to them. You are prepared for anything your opponent can throw at you. My favourite card in this deck after some surprising deck testing is Profane Procession   Which blew me away from testing and imo is one of the best rivals of ixalan cards to be released. It is a 3 mana investment early, but it is so worth it. Being able to exile any creature at instant speed for 5 mana for the rest of the game is crazy. Once you get both online as well in the rare case that you do, they are a automatic engine. You flip one and keep the other, you can then exile cards and play those cards the next turn with the flipped land. This deck is fairly competitive but i feel it needs a added edge, any recommendations would be great, im thinking Gideon of the Trials but the early double white kind of negates the early fatal push mana base wise.

Rounds:

Round 1 - Golgari exploration: 2-0.

Destroyed this deck, as it is a very much creature based deck. Sided in a single Harsh Scrutiny but kept the rest. Very good matchup

Round 2 - Dimir Midrange: 2-1.

A very close match all 3 games, I took the first round with a strong liliana play. The second round got my opponent to 2 life before he stabalized the board and proceeded to have a comeback. Final game, a early Arguel's Bloodfast and then after baiting out counter magic, a resolved Profane Processions solidified the final game.

Round 3 - Grixis treasure control: 0-2.

Not a fun matchup, first game i drew none of the removal i needed, second game i muligan to 5 and proceed to draw no lands. Overall i found the side board needed better answers to decks like these, perhaps a Hour of Revelation.

Round 4 - Golgari Counters: 2-0.

Same as round 1 it was just a great matchup with a easy sideboard process.

NOTES/CONCLUSION: The deck is getting really really strong, control has a bit of an edge on us but with some sideboard adjustments we can really bring the hurt on them. I feel Dreamstealer and Glorybound initiates would be great adds along with a pair of Duress maybe even a Hour of Revelation for those pesky artifact decks.
