Playtest 1.0 —Jan. 8, 2019
Brought an incomplete version of the deck to my LGS for a spin. Performed exceptionally well in a pretty aggro pod of Rhys the Redeemed, The Ur-Dragon, and Arixmethes, Slumbering Isle. The first few rounds were basically everyone ramping and getting stuff set up. The Arixmethes player got his general out early and took advantage of me being tapped out to deal 12 commander damage to me (and killing it) while he could even though I have a No Mercy out. This kinda took me by surprise but considering that he had ramped pretty hard, getting him out again isn't a big deal and pillowfort usually is harder to deal with later in the game. Mid game had the Rhys player Tooth and Nail entwined into a Craterhoof Behemoth and Avenger of Zendikar to kill the two players. He's afraid to go at me as I had a Vedalken Orrery and Sunforger out with a ton of untapped mana. I also had Solitary Confinement in hand which I could have flashed in if he decided to attack me. I ended up locking the game with Platinum Angel with Lightning Greaves and he conceded.
