Made a 2/2 split on Wrench Mind and Smallpox. Wanted to play both but neither of them as 4-ofs, so this just kinda worked out. Still my favorite deck to play :) Didn't get to play FNM with it but did a lot of testing recently:

Burn 2-0: Scary match up game 1, was within top-deck bolt range for more turns than I'd care for. G2 went more smoothly, Scavenging Ooze is the MVP of that match.

Esper Control 2-0: Fairly easy match up. Too many Fatal Pushes not enough counterspells. Rip the big threats from his hand then let The Rack do the rest.

Bogles 2-0: Another fairly simple matchup. It didn't help that I had a Smallpox in my opener. Golgari Charm and Spellskite do wonders post-board.

Grixis Shadow 2-1: Don't have too many answers to Gurmag Angler or Tasigur, the Golden Fang but as long as they don't have a Kolaghan's Command to clear away Ensnaring Bridge its all good. Otherwise....well, it doesn't work out so well.

Affinity 1-2: I'm chalking this up to the fact I didn't see an Ensnaring Bridge all three games. It's unfortunate that the deck relies so heavily on a single card to function but oh well. I don't think I really made an misplays as much as I did bad draws.

Abzan Company 0-2: Traditional Company, not Devoted Druid + Vizier of Remedies Company. Nothing really went wrong here from a gameplay stance, cards just didn't show up when I needed them and that's a part of Magic.

Living End 2-0: The only hard things about this match are A) sticking an Ensnaring Bridge and B) dealing with Ingot Chewer post board.
