He's back, and with better luck than ever! —June 25, 2017

So for the past 10 days I've been at summer camp, which means I haven't been deckcycling but I have been playing the deck a lot!

General thoughts on how the deck preforms:

1) Mana was never a problem. Always seemed to have enough and the devotion I needed.

2) I think I have a good balance of creatures, removal/steal, and utility.

3) Board wipes work really well.

4) I'm very weak to sac effects because I usually only have Brion out.

5)It's kind of a 'get all the pieces together, then win in one swift stroke" kinda deck.

6) This deck is really fun to play. It's now perhaps my favorite EDH deck.

Specific cards that I want to mention:

Phyrexian Processor: This became a game winner on multiple occasions. I need Brion out and 9 mana but once I have those I can drop in, pay life equal to my opponent's, fling the creature, kill the opponent, gain all the life back. This took the spot over Aetherflux Reservoir.

Well of Lost Dreams: Fantastic card draw. Keeping my hand full in the late game is critical for success. It worked perfectly. 10/10 would recommend.

Warstorm Surge: Dealt a lot of damage. Worth the 6 mana cost.

Kor Cartographer: worked great. Set me up for the nine mana Phyrexian Processor win. Good blocker too.

Armillary Sphere: One of my personal favorite mana ramps. Perfect for 2/3 mana decks.

Board wipes like Descend upon the Sinful, Hallowed Burial, and Terminus all worked great. They deal with Sliver Hivelord slivers and Dictate of Erebos effects.

Feldon of the Third Path was my most consistent and efficient reanimator.

Lightning Greaves and Swiftfoot Boots are lifesavers, especially when I get both. One for Brion, one for the creatures I'm sacking.

Bearer of the Heavens was just a fun card. Being able to sac him whenever Something I didn't like happened was great.

Spinerock Knoll was AWFUL. Do NOT play this card in a Brion deck.

That's all for now. Updated Description, check it out!
