The name of the game is to get out talrand with enough open mana to protect him, then keep on protecting, and keeping control of the field. I have a goddawful amount of counters, so that's my primary method of dealing with stuff. Ideally, play slow and build up drakes, attacking to whittle people down. Getting runechanter's pike is a decent win con, but just whittling people down turn after turn works pretty well to me. Trying to narrow down my mainboard, which is getting pretty tricky as there's so much good stuff.

Primarily multiplayer, or casual Singleplayer, so I'm not worried about French rules.
