Well it's directly comparable to Ground Seal. This costs 1 less mana but doesn't cantrip. Secondary ability seems quite irrelevant. It's probably better then GS, since it stops DRS faster (or saves...

I don't understand what exactly troubles you. There are some flex slots in ANT that you can fill with extra Pif, DP, Etw or cantrips. Adjust the numbers according to your metagame and your playstyle....

I run EtW main and no AdN. EtW is for the fast lines, otherwise the main is business-heavy. 7 discard should take care of your first two problems. 2 PiF are also good with that. And yes,...

I have been running AdN-less list with EtW main for long time (since Dark Petition) and have loved it. Yes, people run sweepers, but they have very short time to find them. We also run discard. And...

2 Past in Flames
4 Gitaxian Probe
4 Ponder
4 Brainstorm
