I'm not saying Planar Cleansing is bad in my deck because I can handle anything with Detention Spheres, I'm saying Planar Cleansing is bad in my deck because in order to play it, I'm forced to destroy my own Detention Spheres and planeswalkers. | ||

Think for gameday today I'm moving the planar cleansings to the side and bringing in two terminus. A card I was really, really, really disappointed in was restoration angel. It just didn't seem to be what I wanted it to be... ever. It was just ok. Leaving them in, though. Can't really hold one nights' performance against them. Edit: Or I could just go to 1 resto angel and have 2 terminus in the main. I think I like that. | ||

Managed to trade some good cards for my constructed deck as well, all in all I had a fun day | ||

Won 1 game where my deck showed up, but meh. You're kidding, right? Game day at my shop won't be happening for hours. Of course, they run a very sensible set of hours for the clientele, noon till sometime after midnight-ish, with no real rush on chasing people out the door. In other news, went 2-1 drafting Dimir last night, courtesy of the tiebreakers, hit 4th in the pod for one pack. Best finish yet. Probably would have done better, but my first round was against a guy who drafted 5 madcap skills, a holy mantle, and assorted cheap boros drops. In a draft, I didn't make it past turn 5 either game. The other two matches, Lord of the Void and Undercity Plague served me fairly well after some stalling and milling with Basilica Screechers and Paranoid Delusions. Match 2 game 2, I manascrewed my opponent and ground him down with the Plague, and Match 3 Game 2, I managed to swing 2 times against Orzhov with Lord of the Void, stealing 2 decent defenders to stall, cutting him down to just a couple of Extorts a turn, hit 1 life, extorted him back with one of his own when I countered a spell to keep him from finishing it with the triggers at the end of my turn, and he drew a land, so even with 16 life on the counter, I finished with by milling him out with 7 in the air. I also got a reckoner, loyalist, and rubblebelt raiders between a pack I bought, the pack I won, and the draft itself. | ||

It also blocks pretty much every other creature in my deck (hellriders, conscripts, thalia, ash zealot etc.). Obviously my local metagame is quite different from yours, probably a lot smaller and with less card value going around, but it seems good to me. | ||

Dunno what you are siding in for aggro then. Edit: Your list just looks off altogether, weird numbers for certain cards.

Edit: And I'm trying to tailor my list to be heavily anti-agro MB b/c that's literally 80% of my meta. | ||

1x 5-Jace 2x Think Twice 3x Dissipates For: 2 Angels 2 Terminus 1 Ghost Council 1 Dispel Usually though, another Devour Flesh gets added and Tamiyo comes out. Edit: For my list. I don't know how yours play since you are removal light. I am more UB shell and yours seems more UW shell. | ||
