Edit

This is the deck I took to the PTQ on April 6th, in Brooklyn, NY. I came in 22nd place (out of 213 players), finishing 6-2-0.

Very happy with the results. My two losses were to RG Aggro and Bant tempo.

Against RG Aggro, his turn 1 and turn 2 creatures were just much bigger threats, and although my Vampire Nighthawk was successful in stalling them early on, I just couldn't keep up the pressure.

Against Bant tempo, he literally dominated every turn. Couldn't resolve my threats, he unsummoned what I did manage to get through, and played good combat tricks I wasn't expecting in the form of Rootborn Defenses.

Next time around, I need a better SB plan for RG Aggro (and, presumably, Naya Humans/Blitz). These decks are just too fast.
