Playtest #1 —June 14, 2013
Got to playtest against BW Zombies tonight. The deck runs the usual zombies staples plus sac outlets like Cartel Aristocrat and Bone Splinters and such and also Blood Artist.
Lost a couple games when I couldn't draw into removals and was stuck with nothing to do for the first few turns when he built up an army and set up the sac wombo combo.
However, when I do get my early removals or even a Vampire Nighthawk, the game was different. They buy me enough time to stabilize (and this deck stabilizes quite quickly) and start swinging back with blockers to spare. He eventually couldn't catch up in terms of life and cards. Playing Garruk, Primal Hunter to make a 5/5 token and then playing an 8/8 Prime Speaker Zegana to draw 8 is pretty much game. Game usually is over when I am able to curve Master Biomancer into anything else.

That's the standard count for midrange decks. I am not running any mana dorks so I really need to hit a land every turn. I would be able to get away with 24 if I ran 4-6 dorks.

I feel like you might topdeck into a lot of land while running 4 Farseek and 25 Land. /:
