    I would make the same choice and I did.

    I'd bring out Pox...Not old pox...Just straight up new pox....
    It deals with goblins Post sideboard....Thresh runs a weak mana base that pox will redilly attack....And solidairty loses to discard and oppression...
    None of the match-ups are auto-wins....But the matchs are fun and far from unbeatable....

    I was a bit torn on whether to include the "other" option, but I can see how it will lead people to just choose their pet decks. The poll only allowed me to have 10 choices so I couldn't list every possible deck that has ever seen play, but I tried to limit it to the decks that have done well recently outside of the LMF.

    Looks like everyone is choosing "other" so maybe the results won't be very productive.

    Survival. People seriously underestimate the archtype. Even now with the big3 the deck can easily hold it's own, and I think it would run wild if those were out of the picture.

    I'd actually play 5c Eternal Gardens with the Switch side board discussed over on the boards over here as opposed to SCG. You have a 60/40 matchup with Goblins, and you have a nasty 70/30 against Thresh. But the biggest problem is the Solidarity match-up which is usually a throw-away 10/90 (most cases) pre-board and at least 60/40 post-board.
    I was also debating this as well, but my bias towards Survival made me lean towards it. But Garden would also be an excellent choice(and technically, it's a pretty good choice right now with my new robust list). But when you mention the other discussion, what are you referring to? As far as I know, the only discussion on the deck was here. If there is some elsewhere, would you mind pointing me to it, as I'm rather interested.

    I voted for Red Death, but I'd also might consider Deadguy as well. Recently I've been in a mood just to blow a bunch of lands up, hit my opponent repeatedly with discard and swing with fatties. My second choice would be 4c Landstill though. That deck just steamrolls a lot of stuff.

    Affinity, Ill-Gotten Gains, Ashok-Reanimator, Aggro-Loam would probably be the choices.

    I chose Landstill. BHWC Landstill is ridiculously awesome. And my pet deck is DeadHeads.dec, so I'm not just pimping my pet deck. Says something for that BHWC Landstill.

    btw, what does BHWC even stand for?

    Survival of some sorts seems to be pretty good. It can hold it's own with Goblins, and has a good game aganist NQG. Combo could be addressed in either the board or main or both without effecting your deck to much. You have access to Glowrider (which control hates to see also), Meddling Mage (Playing with birds and vials his Blue/White really isn't a problem), and a few other things.

    Angel Stompy, obviously. Unless you're man enough for Truffle Shuffle.

    Ideally, TES with 4 Duress. In testing that deck has just felt right.

    Probably still play my variant of Deadguy Ale. I love IGGy to death, but the sideboard is devoted almost completely to beating control, and it cripples you to not get solid draw in the first turn.

    Plus, Smallpox is just SO much fun to play against aggro builds. Card advantage is sweet.

    Ashok Reanimator.

    Very explosive, and can easily be tuned to have good matchups against the gauntlet.

    Second choice would be Affinity, as it sometimes just wins, especially when there isn't any artifact hate.

    I normally play Faerie Stompy, but if I really wanted to win, I'd bring Iggy. Those who think it folds to a few counters haven't been developing the deck.
