Competitive Pod Tournament —Nov. 25, 2018
Updated this list from four years ago. Here's the old Iname list -https://i.imgur.com/roQj3Rl.png
Ran with Iname for a serious tournament yesterday, after modding it with pieces borrowed from other decks. That list, (Iname, Death Combo Advance), exhibits clear differences in better mana rocks, and a sacrifice of the casual/spirit-themed removal for efficiency and reach.
Ended up facing Narset (Super Friend Turns Edition) and Sisay. Mulled away two six-landers to settle on a five lander (plus Expedition Map
). With that slow setup I was resigned to my fate, but the other two players balanced each other out somewhat. Iname came down, and I cast a Final Parting to put Gray Merchant of Asphodel in the yard and grab the greedy reanimator (Balthor). This scared Narset enough to prematurely fire off Armageddon, and we thought his Chandra, Torch of Defiance and Tamiyo, the Moon Sage would be enough to get there. Fortunately, his mana didn't recover as quickly as mine (possibly thanks to all that deck thinning), and a topdeck Oblivion Stone killed the board with only a red emblem in play. After forcing the Balthor, which Sisay plowed, a naturally-drawn Rise of the Dark Realms and topdecked ninth mana source meant Gary for 37, ending the game in my favor.
