All fetches out for three more snow-covered basics and a Horizon of Progress!
In the past I have had more reasons for needing top deck manipulation, but now it's really just Conspicuous Snoop.
There are a bunch of cards I would run if EDH was added to MTGArena (Goblin Assassin for one!) but for playing in-person I really want to shuffle as little as possible, so fetches are out!

Latest iteration of the deck has been running very well, with a 40+% winrate in my playgroups the last 2 months or so.
Removing the Blood Moon effects has really only been positive. A lot of the success of the deck (at least the way I like to play it) is to be the smallest threat at the table, and then taking over everything the next turn or two. Any time an opponent questions attacking you because of your boardstate, but also knowing how explosive Ib can be, is a win in my book.
My favorite thing about the deck continues to improve, which is the play patterns and wincons feel new every time. That feels great to play and play against.
City on Fire has been a powerhouse every single time I land it. There is so much incidental damage in the deck I will likely make tweaks for more damage uppers/doublers.
The amount of searching and shuffling is getting tiresome, so I will probably streamline the landbase a bit here soon.
Of all the recent editions, only Sunspine Lynx has underperformed. It being a 4 drop isn't necessarily a problem, but being a non-Goblin has been more impactful than expected.
Repercussion also allowed me to turn a 2nd place finish into a forced table-wide draw from all of us dying at the same time. Not winning but not losing is a win IMO!
