Went 3 - 1 at FNM with this list last night. Still trying to think of an ideal replacement for Gitaxian Probe since the recent bans. Likely candidates are currently Serum Visions or Manamorphose.
Round 1 - vs Mono Red Surge (Won 2 -0)
Relatively easy round if I'm honest. Game 1 my opponent had virtually no mana and I had a handful of gas. Inkmoth Nexus plus Noble Hierarch plus double Groundswell equals GGWP. Game two was closer. Just about survived long enough for Inkmoth and Blighted Agent to push the damage through with a Ghor-Clan Rampager bloodrush for assurance.
Round 2 - vs UW Control (Won 2 - 1)
This was probably the slowest round of the night for me. Lost the first game because counterspells are a rather annoying thing to deal with. Games 2 & 3 were a case of Inkmoth and Noble Hierarch slowly piling the poison counters on while holding up mana for Blossoming Defense/Spell Pierce/Spell Snare.
Round 3 - Elves (Won 2 - 1)
Worth noting this game was against my fiance. Remarkably quick games but that is natural. Pretty sure we finished all three games before some people had finished one. Game 1, Inkmoth Nexus was MVP once more. Game 2, I didn't see a Twisted Image or a Nature's Claim and he had a Spellskite. Stalled me out just long enough to Chord for Ezuri. Game 3, Inkmoth plus Glistener Elf plus Become Immense. GG.
Round 4 - Jund (Lost 2 - 1)
Possibly my worst match up and it really showed. Game 1, I got Inquisition of Kozilek and Collected Brutality with a bunch of removal and a Dark Confidant smacking me in the face until I finally died. Game 2, mercifully I got my counterspells and had enough gas with an Inkmoth Nexus to win. Game 3 was a rinse of repeat of Game 1, just with an additional Liliana.
