This is the Aetherborn tribal I play at local tournys. Does fairly well overall and is annoying. Any suggestions welcomed.

Recent changes;-2 Herald of Anguish for +2 Gonti, Lord of Luxury . Gonti just did make that much of an impact compared to the Herald. So, I'm back to +2 Herald of Anguish for -2 Gonti, Lord of Luxury . The Herald has always been a very good impact. A turn 4 or 5 appearance makes for a lively game.

-2 Swamp for +2 Blighted Fen (BFZ) until the rotation.

The Gods and Plainswalkers are everywhere in the local meta. So I have added more Hour of Glory and Never / Return to the sideboard. I added +1 Yahenni's Expertise to the main and two to the side. These were good against Ramanup deacks. -1 Fatal Push and moved +2 Fatal Push to the sideboard. Went +1 Never / Return and +1 Hour of Glory in the mainboard.

I removed the Bontu the Glorified . I wonder if this was a mistake?

The Animation Module was just not producing and were removed. I had three in the main.

I am testing out +2 Ob Nixilis Reignited in place of -2 Diabolic Tutor . The Tutor's were a productive card.

What will we replace Grasp of Darkness with??? Walk the Plank ?
