Played FNM at my LGS and I went 2-2. I was happy with the way my deck performed, but have made some much needed changes to my deck to combat some weaknesses I face at my LGS. Match 1 I went against a R/G pump deck using Kiln Fiend. The deck beat me first game, but after I sideboarded I was able to come back two games to one. Next match I faced an infinite combo deck using Reveillark, Goblin Arsonist, and a few other pieces. I beat him soundly game one and game three (after sideboarding in Relic of Progenitus for game three). Match 3 I went against a Mono Red Goblins deck that uses Blood Moon in the mainboard. I ended up losing to it because of its speed and how it makes my lands useless. Last match was against a Mono White Humans deck. I went 2-1 against this deck (my second loss of the night). Game two I had enough hand manipulation and control to be able to keep his board state at bay. After FNM, my changes to my main and side board (respectively) were 2 Thoughtseizes for a Midnight Haunting and a Runechanter's Pike and 3 Erase in the sideboard in place of the Thoughtseizes (that went to the main) and a Kataki. I hope this will help me control aggro more in the early stages of the game and will let me keep Blood Moon at bay. I do like having the 3rd copy of Sorin over Elspeth as it negates some dmg from all the pain lands, the Thoughtseizes, and the Dismembers; so, the third copy is here to stay.
