It completely nullifies opponent's removal. Seems alright to me.

I've played her in lists with Titania and Trackers.
The issue with Safekeeper + Ramunap + ??? is like...it's a bit over the top. Safekeeper to protect something that will win (???) ((unless you are going to use Ramunap land recursion to win...which is slow and doesn't deal with threats already on the board)) plus something to help recur the lands is just way too slow. If you have Safekeeper in play -already- by the time you cast Titania, then fine. If Titania by herself survives a turn...then you probably don't need the followup Safekeeper anyway.
Safekeeper early on doesn't ramp you, you'll probably spend two mana early on to GSZ for Vet instead. Wasting a GSZ to get Safekeeper in play -before- any other threat is generally a waste of a turn or waste of a GSZ. If there's an increase in targeted destruction effects (Trophy) then a single Meren might be better. E Witness can get anything back from Trophy anyway.
Safekeeper + Ramunap is fine on the land destruction front, but it's a poor plan to counter the T1 delver that is going to kill you.
Posting while on deployment. Bear with me.
The new 1GW guy seems nice and flexible, I woukd run 1-2 of. Replaces Sage, and likely Qasali. Meren looks a but stronger, as does Rec Nightmare with no DRS in the format.
I think Assassin's Trophy is VERY interesting considering we exploit PTE to great effect. However, Daze and Snare are really where you lose those Delver matchups. I would consider still keeping your removal and just tweaking numbers. Ex. 2 Trophy 3 Decay 2 Path still is a nice split.
Any thoughts?
I was originally thinking Trophy is just another good removal spell. The more I've played with it though, the more I'm on the 4 of plan. It's just that good.
Does Nic-Fit died? :( Almost month without Your posts. No tournament reports, no techs, nothing...
Assasin's thropy placed in Abrupt's slots? Maybe You play split or other versions?
Autumn Knight is quite obvious replacemnt for sage/pridemate :)

Went undefeated, there is no top 8 in leagues, so position 6 is just an arbitrary ranking.
