I think this deck is pretty solid, but certain matchups still scare me. Suggestions are welcome. I will probably look for a 2nd Jace.

The deck performed very well. I never lost a game. After the tournament was over I got another Thoughtseize and Desecration Demon and replaced the 2 Dimir Charm. ROUND 1: I felt kinda bad, I had to play a little girl. 2-0 ROUND 2: I played the little girl's cousin, who was also very new to the game. Like, running Shadowborn Apostles everywhere without Shadowborn Demon. 2-0 ROUND 3: Here's where it got more difficult. There were only 2 decks I was worried about, and I played them the last 2 rounds. This round was a RBW control deck with Desecration Demon, Stormbreath Dragon, Assemble the Legion, and lots of removal. Game 1 I stalled until I got him with Rakdos's Return and it was easy after that. Game 2 I played Slaughter Games and named Stormbreath Dragon when he had 4 mana. He had 2 in his hand. 2-0 ROUND 4: I played the only other 4-0, a golgari aggro deck. Game 1 he Thoughseized me, when I had removal, Dissolve, AEtherling, and some lands. He chose the Dissolve. I topdeck a Duress and and see he had another Thoughtseize. I get rid of it and basically play AEtherling after Frostburn Weird and win. Game 2 I just had answers for everything and won fairly easily.2-0
